LEICA M AND R LENSES
Leica M and R lenses can be attached via Leica M or R L adapters.
There are lens profiles stored in the camera, which allow the
following functions:
• The flash exposure and flash reflector controls utilize the stored
lens data (see “Compatible flash units”).
• The lens data is furthermore written to the EXIF data of the
recordings, provided the lens is relevantly encoded. The focal
length of the lens is additionally displayed when rendering the
extended picture data.
The camera will automatically select the appropriate lens type
settings if the Leica M lens used comes with 6 bit encoding, or the
Leica R lens has an ROM contact strip. You will have to enter the
lens model manually if the lenses are not relevantly equipped.
