40 / Taking photographs with the self-timer / Mirror pre-release

Taking photographs with the self-timer

You can use the LEICA S2's self-timer function to take pictures

with a delay of either 2 or 12 s.

Setting / using the function

1. In the CAMERA section of the menu (see p. 13/22), select

Drive Mode (5.1) and

2. select the required delay time in the associated submenu.

3. To start the process, press the shutter release button all the

way down (see also "Shutter release button", p. 32).

Note:

During the countdown, you can restart the delay time, i.e. ex -

tend it, by pressing the shutter release again.

Process

With 2 s delay time:

Exposure metering is carried out first, in autofocus mode the

focus is set and the mirror flips up. The delay time then begins.

With 12 s delay time:

The delay time begins immediately after the shutter release

button is pressed and the mirror flips up 2 s before the picture

is taken.

Displays

The elapsed delay time is displayed:

• the monitor (1.22) displays Releasing in 12s and the time

remaining until the picture is taken counts down.

• the LED on the front of the camera (1.2) – for the first 10 s

with a 12 s delay time - flashing, otherwise continuously lit.

Cancelling the function

A self-timer delay time in progress can be cancelled by

- turning off the camera, i.e. turning the main switch (1.15) to

the

OFFposition,

- during the first 10 s of a 12 s self-timer delay time by pressing

button 1.20 – in this case labeled CANCEL.

If you no longer want to use the self-timer, it must be deactivated

in the menu. Turning off the camera also deactivates the func-

tion.

Note:

If the self-timer function is set and mirror pre-release is activated

at the same time, the shutter movement occurs after the select ed

delay time, i.e. without the need to press the shutter release

button again.

Mirror pre-release

To eliminate the remaining minimal effects of mirror movement

and closing of the lens aperture, the LEICA S2 includes the option

of using mirror pre-release.

Setting / using the function

1. In the CAMERA section of the menu (see p. 13/22), select

Mirror Up Mode (5.8) and

2. then select ON or OFF in the submenu.

3. Press the shutter release button all the way down, i.e. to the

third pressure point (see also „Shutter release“, p. 32) to flip

up the mirror.

4. Press the shutter release button all the way down again to

take the picture.

Process

The first time the shutter release button is pressed, exposure

metering and (in autofocus mode) focusing are first carried out,

then the mirror flips up and the aperture closes to the appro-

priate value.

The shutter does not move and thus the actual picture is not

taken until the shutter release button is pressed again. After the

exposure, the mirror moves back down into place and the aper-

ture opens again in the normal way.

Cancelling the function

The mirror pre-release process can be canceled without taking

a picture after pressing the shutter releasebutton for the first

time.

This is done by turning off the camera at the main switch, i.e.

turning the main switch (1.15) to the OFF position – the mirror

then flips back down again. If mirror pre-release is set, the func-

tion remains active even after turning the camera off and back

on, i.e. if you want to take the next picture without mirror pre-

release, the function must be set to OFF in the menu.

Notes:

• The picture must be taken within 2 min of pressing the shut-

ter release for the first time. If not, the mirror flips back down

automatically to preserve the battery capacity (without the

shutter opening first).

• While the mirror is flipped up, the 2 min dwell time can be

restarted at any time by tapping the shutter release.

• If mirror pre-release and the self-timer function are activated

at the same time, the shutter movement occurs after the sel-

ected delay time, i.e. without the need to press the shutter

release again.
