Review of Portrait-format pictures

Normally, the pictures on the monitor are shown how they were taken, i.e.
if the camera was held horizontally, the picture will be shown that way too.
In the case of portrait format pictures though, i.e. if the camera was held
vertically for the shot, this may be inconvenient since, with the camera
held horizontally afterwards as usual, the monitor image will not show an
upright picture.
The LEICA X1 offers a remedy for this.
In the menu, select Auto Rotate Display (3.28), and in the submenu the
desired setting.
When On is selected, portrait format pictures are automatically displayed
upright.
Notes:
• Portrait format pictures shown perpendicularly on the monitor are nec-
essarily considerably smaller.
• This function is not available for automatic review (see p. 93).
