If the camera has switched to standby mode, you can re-activate
it at any time in one of the following ways:
• Turn it off and back on using the ON/OFF switch
• Press the TIMER button (20).
• Press the EV button (21).
• Press the MODE button (22).
• Tap or press the shutter release (3)
Note: The camera automatically selects the default flash mode
each time it is switched on (see “Selectable modes“, p. 89), un-
less you have previously stored a different mode. This also ap-
plies to a stored exposure compensation (see also “Storing flash
modes/the set exposure compensation”, p. 108).
Imprinting data
The LEICA CM has an integrated dating facility. This allows either
the day and time (day, hour and minute) or the date (day, month
and year in four different selectable orders), as desired, to be
imprinted in the bottom right hand corner of each picture. The
position and size of the imprint can be seen on the photograph
illustrated.
