BASIC PHOTO SETTINGS
SWITCHING THE SENSOR FORMAT
The Leica SL is a standard 35mm format camera, i.e. its sensor
size is approx. 24 x 36mm. You can limit the sensor area used to
the APS-C format though, i.e. to approx. 15.7 x 23.6mm.
APS-C should be utilized whenever using lenses designed for this
format.
Setting the function
1. In the menu's
IMAGE section, select Sensor Format, and
2. in the submenu, the desired setting.
Notes:
Using the smaller format with lenses designed for the 35mm
format results in focal lengths that are eectively longer (by
approx. 1.2x - the so-called 'crop factor'), and therefore also a
reduced angle of view (approx. 66%).
This function can be assigned to the
FAVORITES menu.
ASPECT RATIO
You can select the aspect ratio to be used for photos, i.e. the
relationship between the vertical and horizontal sides of the
format.
Setting the function
1. In the menu's
IMAGE section, select Photo Aspect Ratio, and
2. in the submenu, the desired setting.
Note:
This function can be assigned to the
FAVORITES menu.
