Leica Z2X - Capturing Photographs; The Shooting Process

distance
between camera
and
subject
has to be
increased.
However,
if
the
green
LED
f lashes
at
short
intervals, automatic
focusing
is not
possible
due to
insuff
iclent
contrast.
In
this
case, aim
the camera
at a similarly
lit
subject
at a comparable
distance
until
the corresponding
focus and
exposure
values
have
been
stored
in the
memory.
lf
your
subject
requires
more light, the
LEICA
Z2X automatically
activates
the
auxiliary
AF light.
