SpIRIT LEVEL

Thanks to integrated sensors, the Leica M can represent its alignment
in the monitor (34). The corresponding display is called up as
required. It enables you to align the camera precisely in the
longitudinal and transverse axis to capture critical subjects, e.g.
architecture pictures from a tripod.
Setting the function
In the main menu (see p. 154/246) select
section).
SETUP
• A vertical scale and a horizontal bar appear in the monitor.
Variations from the relevant zero positions are indicated
graphically– by red markings – and the horizontal alignment in the
longitudinal and transverse axis by a central green marking. The
corresponding figures are also specified.
Note:
The monitor image remains visible until it is deactivated by pressing
one of the shutter release buttons (16/18) or the

USER / AppLICATION SpECIFIC pROFILES

On the Leica M, any combination of menu settings can be
permanently stored, e.g. so that they can be retrieved quickly and
easily at any time for recurring situations / subjects. A total of four
memory slots are available for these combinations, as well as a
factory default setting that can be retrieved at any time and cannot
be changed. You can change the names of the saved profiles.
Profiles set on the camera can be transferred onto one of the
memory cards, for example for use in other camera units, while
profiles stored on a card can be transferred onto the camera.
