MONITOR AND ELECTRONIC VIEWFINDER SETTINGS
Note:
The monitor and the optional electronic viewfinder image displays are identi-
cal. Where they appear depends on whether the viewfinder is switched on or
off with its own respective button.
The respective settings remain active even if
- the camera automatically switches itself to stand-by mode (see p. 113),
- the camera is switched off with the main switch (see p. 104), or
- the battery is removed (see p. 100).
For details on the Leica EVF 2 (available as accessory, see p. 152), see the
viewfinder’s instructions.
SWITCHING THE DISPLAY SETS
Select the desired option with the INFO button (1.12). Scroll through the
different options (in an endless loop) by pressing once or several times.
The sequences:
In record mode
a. all displays (see p. 90, plus histogram if set, see p. 127)
b. only basic exposure settings (see p. 90) and AF and exposure metering
areas
c. with gridlines (plus histogram if set, see p. 127)
d. monitor switched off (In this case, the LED 1.28 is permanently lit as an
indication)
In review mode
a. all displays (see p. 93, plus histogram if set, see p. 127)
b. basic exposure settings (see p. 93) only
Notes:
• Mode d. is only available if previously set in the menu, see next section.
• In record mode, you can press the
INFO
button ≥1s to call up a screen list-
ing ve important settings (2.1.26, see p. 92).
DETERMINING THE MONITOR AS THE EXCLUSIVE DISPLAY FOR
REVIEWING IMAGES
You can determine that the monitor is automatically switched on every time
you press the PLAY button (1.16) to review images, even if the Leica EVF 2
is being used.
In the menu, select Play on Monitor (3.19), and in the submenu On so the
monitor is always switched on with review mode, or Off if you wish to use the
EVF 2’s display instead (if it is switched on, see above and the viewfinder’s
instructions).
Note:
This function is only effective for
PLAY
mode, not for Auto Review mode, i.e.
regardless of whether Play on Monitor is switched on or off, when the EVF
2 and Auto Review (see p. 106) are switched on, the images are displayed
in the viewfinder.
