ENLARGING / SELECTING THE TRIMMING / SIMULTANEOUSLY
VIEWING SEVERAL REDUCED PICTURES
With the Leica M it is possible to open an enlarged section of an
individual picture in the monitor to study it more closely, with a free
choice of section. Conversely, you can also view up to 36 pictures
simultaneously in the monitor, e.g. to gain an overview or to find the
picture you are looking for more quickly.
Notes:
Not all zoom levels are available for pictures with low resolution,
e.g. 1.7 MP.
While an enlarged picture is displayed, left/right on the direction
pad are no longer available to open other pictures, instead they are
used to "navigate" within the picture. (exception: see next note).
Turning the setting dial (29) to the right enlarges a central trimmed
area. Enlargement is possible up to 1:1, i.e. until 1 pixel of the
monitor displays 1 pixel of the picture.
The four directions on the direction pad (30) can be used to select
any position for the section to be enlarged. To do this, press the
direction (several times) in which you want to shift the section.
In addition to the enlargement, the rectangle within the frame in
the top right-hand corner of the monitor symbolizes the position of
the section displayed.
