Shutter Release Button - Leica M10 Anleitung

SHUTTER BUTTON
The shutter button has two pressure points:
18
1. Pressing down (=to the 1st ressure point)
– activates the camera electronics and viewfinder display
– saves the metered exposure value in aperture priority mode,
i.e. the shutter speed determined by the camera (for more
details, refer to the "Metering memory lock" section on p.
170)
– restarts a self-timer delay that is already in progress.
If the shutter button is pressed down to this pressure stage,
the display stays on.
If the camera had switched itself off, it is activated again and
the display is switched on.
If review mode or menu control had been activated, the cam-
era reverts to picture mode.
After the shutter button has been released, the camera elec-
tronics and viewfinder displays remain switched on for as long
as has been set in the menu item
(see p. 148)
Automatic Power Saving
Note:
The shutter button remains blocked
– if the internal buffer memory is (temporarily) full, e.g. after a
series of ≥16 pictures.
– if the memory card inserted and the internal buffer memory are
(temporarily) full.
– if the battery has exceeded its performance limits (capacity,
temperature, age)
– if the memory card is write-protected or damaged.
– if the image numbering on the memory card has been exhaust-
ed.
– if the camera requests entry of language, date and time when
being used for the first time or after resetting all settings.
– if the sensor is too hot.
2. Pressing the shutter button all the way down takes the picture
or starts a preselected self-timer delay time. The data is then
transferred to the memory card.
Note:
To avoid camera shake, the shutter button should be pressed gen-
tly, not jerkily, until the shutter is released with a soft click.
The shutter button has a standard thread 18a for a cable release.
