in the camera back, press one finger lightly against the center,
and turn the disc to mark the type and speed of the film loaded in
the LEICA. Symbols indicate black-and-white film, daylight color
film (sun on a red background) or artificial light color film (lamp
on a red background). One of the three pointers, next to the
appropriate symbol, should point to the film speed in ASA or
DIN.
The Delayed Action Self-Timer (14)
The self-timer works with all shutter speeds from 1 to

sec,
and can be set either before or after the shutter is tensioned.
For self-timer exposures use the small chromed button indicated
by an arrow in the picture above. Do not use the shutter-
release; this will by-pass the self-timer mechanism. When pulled
down all the way, as shown above, the delay will be about 10
seconds; half-way gives a delay of about 5 seconds.
