Autofocus Metering Methods - Leica X-U 113 Instructions Manual

AUTOFOCUS METERING METHODS

For optimized adjustment of the AF system to various subjects,
situations and your picture composition ideas, you can choose
between four AF metering methods on the Leica X-U:
1. Press the
DELETE/FOCUS
in the sub-menu
2. Save your settings via the
Spot/Single Field Measurement
Both measuring methods capture only the parts of the subject in the
center of the monitor image. The relevant fields are marked with a small
AF frame. The very small metering range for spot measurement allows
focusing on tiny details of the subject. For portrait close-ups it is
usually recommended to have a sharp focus on the eyes. The slightly
longer single field measuring range is less critical when focusing, and
therefore easier to handle while still allowing selective measuring.

2. Use the cross pad to move the AF frame to the desired position
• The relevant triangles disappear when you get close to the
edges to indicate the offset limits.
You can return the frame to the central position at any time:
