SYSTEM ACCESSORIES
INTERCHANGEABLE LENSES
The Leica M system provides a basis for optimum adaptation to
fast and unobtrusive photography. The range of lenses incorpo-
rates focal lengths from 16 to 135mm and light intensities up to
1:0.95.
R ADAPTER M
The Leica R adapter M allows almost all Leica R lenses to be used
on the Leica M Monochrom, i.e. regardless of the focal length,
fixed focal length or zoom, close up limit, with which actuating cam
they are equipped (SL "ramps" / R "steps") and whether or not they
have a ROM contact strip.
It is also possible to use these lenses in conjunction with Leica
Extender R models, and with close-up accessories such as the
Leica Macro Adapter R, Leica R intermediate rings and the R BR2
automatic bellows.
This enables the camera to be used for applications that are not
normally possible for a view and range finder camera, such as
pictures with extremely short or long focal lengths, and extreme
close up shots.

FILTERS
UVA filters and a universal polarization filter M are available for
current Leica M lenses with standard filter thread sizes.
EVF2 ELECTRONIC VIEWFINDER
The EVF2 delivers almost 100% TTL reproduction of the image field
with a resolution of 1.4 megapixels. This allows easy and precise
picture composition along with complete control of all relevant
data. It is particularly useful when the lighting conditions impair the
visibility of the monitor screen and - thanks to the pivoting
eyepiece - for worm's eye view pictures.

Note:
Make sure the accessory shoe cover is always attached when no
accessories are in use (such as a flash unit, an external viewfinder
or microphone). It will protect the socket 28 for a time against
water incursion.
