User Profile

With the Leica X2, any combination of all 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 three memory slots are available for such combinations. You can also reset all the menu items to the factory set- ting.

Note:

Defaulting does not reset your time and date settings.

Image stabilization

Especially in low light situations, the necessary shutter speed may be too slow to ensure sharp pictures, even with the activated AUTO ISO function (see p. 118). The Leica X2 offers a function that will often produce sharp pictures even with such slow shutter speeds.

In the menu, select Image Stabilization, and in the submenu the desired set- ting.

Notes:

The camera takes two pictures automatically in series with this function, one with a faster and one with a slower shutter speed (you will hear the shutter operate twice during the operation). Then, it takes the data of the two expo- sures and combines them into one with digital image processing.

Therefore, please hold the camera steady until the shutter has released the second time.

Due to the function using two exposures, it can only be applied with static subjects.

Image stabilization is only possible with shutter speeds within the range of 1/4 s to 1/30s and sensitivities up to ISO 1600.
