Flash mode
The LEICA MP does not have its own flash meter-
ing and control function. As a result, flash expo-
sures must either be controlled by the flash unit
itself (computer control) or by using guide number
calculations – the aperture must be reset for each
picture according to the distance between the
subject and the camera.
The fastest possible shutter speed for pictures
using electronic flash units, the synchronisation
time of 1/50s, is indicated by 쇵 on the shutter
speed dial (16). For special effects, all slower
shutter speeds including the B/OFF setting can
also be used.
Important: Mechanically controlled firing of flash
units connected via the accessory shoe (20) or
the contact socket (22) may also be triggered
when pressing the shutter release even if the shut-
ter is not cocked.
