Discussion Forum Leica S System S2 How are your buttons set?

    When I shoot with the S2, here is what I set the buttons to:

    • Upper Left: ISO

    • Lower Left: Drive Mode (gives me easy access to 2-Second Self Timer which incorporates mirror lockup)

    • Upper Right: Exposure Compensation (especially useful now that no button press is needed to confirm the selection, and is visible live in the viewfinder)

    • Lower Right: Bracketing (a feature we use a lot, especially with the new “auto” feature)

    • Front Button: Depth of Field preview when shooting landscape, and Key Lock when working in the studio so we don’t accidentally change any settings.

    • Rear AF button: Always set this to auto focus, the shutter I use for AE lock.

    • Rear wheel: Always set to “Long Push” to avoid accidental mode changes

    Here we go:

    Upper left: ISO

    Lower left: Bracketing

    Upper right: Exposure Compensation

    Lower right: Mirror Lockup (I do change from time to time the Drive Mode but as it is only two clicks away to get there I prefered Mirror Lockup.)

    Rear Button: AF-L (AE-L with half-pressed shutter)

    Wheel – Long Push (Haven’t played with this button so far.)
