Guaranteed quality

We are aware of the high quality that is expected of a Leica and for how long our cameras are expected to last. That is also why we offer an unusually long guarantee of 3 years for the LEICA C2.

Balanced exposure Thanks to multi-pattern metering, you can enjoy the dependability of the LEICA C2 for a balanced expos- ure in every situation. Automatic recognition of a backlit situ- ation even makes sure that the main subject is illuminated with fill-in flash if that should be necessary. This makes it far more likely that a child on a swing will be pictured much better than before.

Variable autofocus In addition to spot autofocus, the LEICA C2 also offers you the option of switching over to multi-pattern autofocus. It measures with up to five zones. The advantage is demonstrated by the illustration on the right : Even though the main subject is not in that center of the picture, the C2 puts the sharpness where it belongs, namely on the child. This is also particularly advantageous in group photo- graphs. Because many cameras focus on the uninteresting background right between two heads, whereas the C2 recognizes the fact that it is the people that matter.

Pre-flash prevents the red-eye effect The red eyes that are typical of flash exposures spoil the nicest pictures. That is why Leica incorporated a stroboscopic pre-flash in the LEICA C2 that causes the pupils of the eyes to contract, thus very effectively redu- cing the red-eye effect in the picture.

Protection provided by the Prewind System If the LEICA C2 is opened by mistake, your pictures are not lost : The Prewind System, however, first winds the entire film out of a freshly inserted film cartridge on to the take-up spool and then winds the exposed pictures back into the cartridge. As a result, your pictures are securely protected. The exposure counter shows how many pictures remain to be taken.

All-around zoom lens Would you like to get close to your subject or would you prefer to include plenty of surroundings ? The universal range of focal lengths from 35 to 70 mm leaves all possibilities open. Whatever pictorial expression you prefer, the picture quality is so good at every setting that even when they are enlarged, the pictures are still impressive for their finely rendered details and for the delicate nuances of their colors.
