FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY
USING THE BUILT-IN FLASH UNIT Fig. 51
The Leica T has a built-in fl ash unit. When not in use, it is recessed
into the camera body and is turned off . For fl ash pictures, it must
be extended:
► Turn the main switch to the right as far as it will go, i.e. beyond
the spring resistance
Fig. 51
The fl ash unit then pops up automatically into its operating position
which also turns it on.
• The display for the set fl ash mode appears in white. If the fl ash
unit is not yet fully charged and therefore not ready for use, it
briefl y fl ashes in red.
Whenever you want to take photographs without the fl ash, leave it
in its idle position or carefully push it down until it locks into place.
Notes:
• To determine the  ash exposure, a metering  ash is  red
immediately before taking the picture and before the main fl ash.
• Picture series and automatic bracketing are not possible with
the  ash. In these cases, even if the  ash unit is extended there
is not fl ash display and the fl ash is not fi red.
