| Displays | |
|---|---|
| In the viewfinder | Four-digit digital display with exposure alerts above and below |
| On back | 3" colour TFT LCD monitor with 16 million colours and 1,036,800 pixels, approx. 100 % image field, glass cover of extremely hard, scratch-resistant Gorilla® glass, colour space: sRGB, for Live-View and review mode, displays |
| Viewfinder | |
|---|---|
| Construction principle | Large, bright line frame viewfinder with automatic parallax compensation |
| Eye piece | Calibrated to -0.5 dpt.; corrective lenses from -3 to +3 diopter available |
| Image field limiter | By activating two bright lines each: For 35 and 135mm, or for 28 and 90mm, or for 50 and 75mm; automatic switching when lens is attached. |
| Parallax compensation | The horizontal and vertical difference between the viewfinder and the lens is automatically compensated according to the relevant distance setting, i.e. the viewfinder bright-line automatically aligns with the subject detail recorded by the lens. |
| Matching viewfinder and actual image | At a range setting of 2m, the bright-line frame size corresponds exactly to the sensor size of approx. 23.9 x 35.8mm; at infinity setting, depending on the focal length, approx. 7.3% (28mm) to 18% (135mm) more is recorded by the sensor than indicated by the corresponding bright line frame and slightly less for shorter distance settings than 2m |
| Magnification | (For all lenses) 0.73 x |
| Long-base rangefinder | Split or superimposed image range finder shown as a bright field in the centre of the viewfinder image |
| Effective metering base | 50.6mm (mechanical measurement basis 69.31mm x viewfinder magnification 0.73x) |
| Flash exposure control | |
|---|---|
| Flash unit attachment | Via accessory shoe with central and control contacts |
| Synchronisation | Optionally triggered at the 1st or 2nd shutter curtain |
| Flash sync time | 1/180 s; slower shutter speeds can be used, if working below sync speed: Automatic changeover to TTL linear flash mode with HSS-compatible Leica system flash units |
| Flash exposure metering | Using centre-weighted TTL pre-flash metering with Leica flash units (SF40, SF64, SF26), or flash units compatible with the system with SCA3502 M5 adapter |
| Flash measurement cell | 2 silicon photo diodes with collection lens on the camera base |
| Flash exposure compensation | ±3EV in1⁄3EV increments |
| Displays in flash mode (in viewfinder only) | Using flash symbol LED |
| Camera | |

| Type no. | 6376 |
| Camera type | Compact digital view and rangefinder system camera |
| Lens attachment | Leica M bayonet with additional sensor for 6-bit coding |

| Metering method | Light reflected by the blades of the 1 shutter curtain onto measuring cell |
| Metering range | At room temperature and normal humidity for ISO 200, at aperture 1.0 EV-2 to EV19 at aperture 32. Flashing of the left triangular LED in the viewfinder indicates values below the metering range |
| Sensitivity range | ISO 100 to ISO 50.000, adjustable in 1/3 ISO increments, choice of automatic control or manual setting |
