UNIVERSAL WIDE ANGLE VIEWFINDER M
The Leica universal wide-angle viewfinder M is a thoroughly
practical accessory. It can be used without restriction on all analog
and digital Leica M models and – just like the viewfinder in the
camera – uses a reflected bright-line frame to outline the picture
area for wide angle focal lengths 16, 18, 21, 24 and 28mm.
The viewfinder is equipped with parallax compensation and a vial
(spirit level) for exact leveling of the camera.
(Order no. 12 011)
MIRROR VIEWFINDER M
Mirror viewfinders are available for 18, 21, and 24mm lenses. They
feature an exceptionally compact design and a bright viewfinder
image. Bright line frames like those in the camera viewfinder are
used to select the trimming (order no. 18mm: 12 022 black,
12 023 silver / 21mm: 12 024 black, 12 025 silver / 24mm:
12 026 black / 12 027 silver).
VIEWFINDER MAGNIFIERS M 1.25x AND M 1.4x
The Leica M 1.25x and M 1.4x viewfinder magnifiers significantly
simplify picture composition when using focal lengths above
35mm. They can be used on all Leica M models and magnify the
central area of the viewfinder image. The 1.25x viewfinder
magnifier gives the 0.68 x viewfinder on this camera a
magnification of 0.85 x, while the 1.4 x gives 0.95 x magnification.
A security chain with snap fasteners prevents loss and can be used
to hang the viewfinder on the carrying strap's fastening ring.
The viewfinder magnifiers are supplied in a leather bag. A loop on
the case allows the viewfinder magnifier to be stored on the
camera's carrying strap, where it is protected and ready for use.
(Order no. 12 004 M 1.25x, 12 006 M 1.4x)
