Setting The Film Speed - Leica MP Bedienungsanleitung

4. Open the bottom cover.
5. Open the rear panel.
6. Remove the film cartridge.
If a film is not correctly attached to the cartridge
spool, e.g. when using bulk film, it can happen
that the end of the film is torn off and has to be
removed from the take-up spool.
To do this:
1. Remove the camera's bottom cover in a
completely dark room.
2. Hold the camera so that the open bottom
cover is facing downwards.
3. Operate the quick wind lever slowly several
times, until the film comes out of the camera
by itself so that you can take hold of it and
remove it. If necessary, lightly tap the camera
on your hand to assist you.

Setting the film speed

Using the setting dial (27), you can select the
film speed by setting one of the values in the
range ISO 6 to 6400. (ISO is the international
designation for film speeds.)
To do this, turn the locking dial until the desired
value is aligned with the white index point (26).
