Best results
With the LEICA C2 you are certain to achieve
more good pictures. Because the legendary
quality of Leica lenses is also embodied in
the C2 to assure you of razor-sharp pictures
with brilliant colors. Electronic helpers en-
able you to concentrate fully on what is so
important : unencumbered photography.
Balanced exposure Thanks to multi-pattern metering, you can
enjoy the dependability of the LEICA C2 for a balanced expos-
ure in every situation. Automatic recognition of a backlit situ-
ation even makes sure that the main subject is illuminated with
fill-in flash if that should be necessary. This makes it far more
likely that a child on a swing will be pictured much better than
before.
Variable autofocus In addition to spot autofocus, the LEICA C2 also
offers you the option of switching over to multi-pattern autofocus. It
measures with up to five zones. The advantage is demonstrated by the
illustration on the right : Even though the main subject is not in that
center of the picture, the C2 puts the sharpness where it belongs, namely
on the child. This is also particularly advantageous in group photo-
graphs. Because many cameras focus on the uninteresting background
right between two heads, whereas the C2 recognizes the fact that it is
the people that matter.
Always at your service
Whether you are out in nature, rough-
housing with your kids or celebrating with
friends : the LEICA C2 is always ready.
Small and light, it fits in most any pocket.
And it is so easy to use that you can cap-
ture every situation. If you wish, you can
also include the day and the time, or the
date right on your favorite pictures.
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 C2.
Beautifully packaged
For decades, Leica cameras have distin-
guished themselves for their unique styl-
ing. The LEICA C2 also stands out for its
beautiful, robust aluminum body and its
ergonomic operating elements. The trans-
parent plastic box supplied with it makes
it attractive and safe to carry the camera.
Pre-flash prevents the red-eye effect The red eyes that are typical of flash exposures spoil the nicest pictures. That is why Leica
incorporated a stroboscopic pre-flash in the LEICA C2 that causes the pupils of the eyes to contract, thus very effectively redu-
cing the red-eye effect in the picture.
Protection provided by the Prewind System If the LEICA C2 is opened by mistake, your pictures are not lost : The Prewind
System, however, first winds the entire film out of a freshly inserted film cartridge on to the take-up spool and then winds the
exposed pictures back into the cartridge. As a result, your pictures are securely protected. The exposure counter shows how
many pictures remain to be taken.
All-around zoom lens Would you like to get close to your subject or would you
prefer to include plenty of surroundings ? The universal range of focal lengths
from 35 to 70mm leaves all possibilities open. Whatever pictorial expression
you prefer, the picture quality is so good at every setting that even when they
are enlarged, the pictures are still impressive for their finely rendered details
and for the delicate nuances of their colors.
LEICA C2 Very simply : more good pictures ! Be it leisure time,
family or a festivity, with the C2, you capture important moments in
impressive photographs.
