Review mode
Selecting review modes
You can switch from record or menu setting mode to review at any time by
pressing the
PLAY
button (1.16).
In addition, you can choose to have every picture taken to be shown auto-
matically immediately after the shot.
1. In the menu, select Auto Review (3.19),
2. in the submenu Duration, and
3. in the respective second level submenu the desired function or dura-
tion.
4. To select whether pictures should be shown with or without histogram
(see p. 102), call up the first sub-menu again,
5. select Histogram, and then
6. the desired option.
• The last picture taken is shown in the monitor and the selected dis-
plays for review mode (see p. 79) appear.
If no image file is saved in the internal memory (see p. 114) and/or on
the memory card, the message No valid image to play appears instead.
Notes:
• If a memory card is inserted (see p. 86), only the pictures on the card
are accessible for reviewing, i.e. if you want to review a picture saved to
the internal memory, the card must be removed first.
• The LEICA X1 saves pictures according to the DCF standard (Design
Rule for Camera File System).
• It may not be possible to review files not created by the LEICA X1.
• In some cases, the monitor image may either be of poorer quality than
usually, or the monitor may even remain black except for the displayed
file name.
Selecting pictures
You can select the other saved pictures using either
– the left and right direction buttons (1.25/1.22), or
– the setting wheel (1.18).
Pressing/turning left takes you to the pictures with lower numbers, pres-
sing/turning right to those with higher numbers. Keeping the buttons pres-
sed results in continuous scrolling at a rate of approx. 2s per picture.
After the highest and lowest numbers, the series of pictures begins again
in an endless loop, so you can reach all pictures in either direction.
• The picture and file numbers change accordingly.
