Shutter priority with full-field integral metering

The desired shutter speed is preselected; the corresponding aperture is set automatically.

This mode is used above all for quickly moving subjects, where the shutter speed is the element of composition. This applies particularly to movement sequences, such as sports photography, exposures from an unsteady support or with long-focal-length lenses.

With a high shutter speed, rapid movements can be frozen with pin-sharp contours. A slower shutter speed produces deliberate movement blur, which may enhance the dynamic effect.

The desired shutter speed between 1/2000 s and 4s is preselected on the shutter speed dial; the lens aperture is automatically set depending on ambient light.

Important:

The lens must be stopped down to its smallest aperture (f/16 or f/22 respectively) so that the entire aperture range is available for the automatic control.

Using the FISHEYE-ELMARIT-R f/2.8/ 16mm or the former ELMARIT-R f/2.8/ 19mm (11225) lens with a minimum aperture f/16, the display

Tflashes and the aperture scale at right in the viewfinder extinguishes even if the lens has been stopped down completely. Nevertheless, the correct aperture is determined automatically.

The T mode functions with all LEICA R-Lenses with fully automatic spring-back diaphragm.
