Leica 18069 Film Camera User Manual


 
Everything in view
Panoramic landscapes, groups of people,
city views – with the 28mm wide-angle
setting you simply capture more on your
pictures. A decisive advantage, when no
one has to be left out in group photos or
houses and monuments can be captured
completely. And the aspheric lens elements
in the Leica lens render your subject with
sharpness, rich contrast and natural colors,
even under poor light conditions.
Creativity without bounds Give a free rein to your creativity ! There are no limits on the choice of subjects, because the zoom
lens covers everything, from landscapes (28mm), for example, to portraits (80mm). At a Leica level of quality, of course, with
impressive picture quality, even in big enlargements.
Utmost convenience The LEICA C3 is equipped with useful automatic controls that make the camera delightfully easy to operate
and that lead to very good pictures : Exposure metering (dependable center-weighted integral metering with measured value
storage), automatic programs with automatic exposure control, fast, active infrared autofocus with focus storage and automatic
flash activation in low light situations (which can be switched off). And all that with a flash guide number of up to 20 for a great
range. This enables you to take worry-free pictures.
No compromises
From Leica you can expect that your
camera meets the highest quality stand-
ards and that it is made of high-grade
materials. From the lightweight aluminum
body housing and its precise mechanisms
to the zoom lens, which is fabricated
completely of genuine optical glasses.
Secure handling
The C3, with its elegant aluminum design,
has an ergonomic grip, so that it will also
fit well in your hands when you want to
take pictures spontaneously while you are
traveling. All its control elements are laid
out for easy operation. A practical plastic
box is included for safe transportation.
Guaranteed quality
We are aware of the high quality that is
expected of a Leica and for how long our
cameras are expected to last. That is also
why we offer an unusually long guarantee
of 3 years for the LEICA C3.
Serial date imprinting This makes good sense : With the dating feature of the LEICA C3, you can imprint the time or the date on
your pictures. Even after a long time, you’ll still know when the pictures were made.
Long time exposures The good speed that the zoom lens of the LEICA C3 features in spite of its
compact design is especially helpful in difficult light conditions. And there is more : If you want to
take pictures at night, for instance of a starry sky, or of a harbor scene, a fireworks display or a
thunderstorm – the C3 offers the “T” mode for individual time exposures of up to 99 seconds. By
pressing the release button once, you start the exposure and the elapsed seconds indication in
the display ; pressing it a second time ends the exposure.
LEICA C3 Whether you use it in your profession or in your leisure
time, for architecture or for landscapes, the LEICA C3 expands your
angle of view.
