Series exposures
You can not only use the LEICA DIGILUX 1 to take
single pictures but also to produce sequences of
pictures. At a maximum image frequency of
3.8B/s, a maximum of 4/8 pictures are possible
in this mode, which means that sequences of
movement with a maximum length of 2 s can be
recorded.
Notes:
Series exposures are not possible either with
video recordings or with uncompressed “TIFF”
image data recording (see p. 148).
Series exposures are not possible when using
the flash. If a flash function is activated, only one
picture is taken.
For pictures with a low compression rate
y, a
maximum of 4 pictures can be taken in sequence,
with a high compression rate
Y it is a maximum
of 8 pictures.
The maximum image frequency of 4B/s is only
achieved with shutter speeds of 1/25 s or faster.
Regardless of how many pictures have been taken
in a sequence, only the first is subsequently
shown in the monitor (1.33) when using the
REVIEW (see p. 129) and AUTO REVIEW
(see p. 129) functions.
Setting the function:
1. Set the record/review selector (1.14) to series
exposures
Ü and the exposure mode dial
(1.15) to the desired function.

“Taking pictures in
AUTO mode” (see p. 127).
Pictures with sound

for a maximum of 5 s, for example accompanying
noises or commentary on the picture.

Sound recording is not possible when saving the
data in TIFF format (see p. 148), for series expos-
ures (see p. 134) or for automatic exposure and
focus bracketing modes (see p. 140 and 144).
