Leica R9 35mm SLR Body Black USA

Leica R9 35mm SLR Body Black USA

Includes Leica R9 35mm SLR Body Black USA. * Major benefits: * LEICA R9 is compatible with virtually all R-mount lenses made since 1965, and nearly all current Leica R lenses are equipped with ROM contacts, which establish specific communication between camera and lens, leading to perfect exposures. * Illuminated information display on the back cover, in addition to the viewfinder, activates when camera is switched on and the shutter release is touched, giving clear overview of current settings, exposures, film speed, exposure correction and battery condition. * Can correct the exposure in the multi-pattern metering mode. * LCD exposure counter on the top of the camera is permanently visible as long as the camera is switched on. * Accurate exposure metering and control are prerequisites for successful photographs. * LEICA R9 features selective, integral and sophisticated multi-pattern exposure metering whose level can be changed by tenths of a step. * Selected shutter speed and aperture combination is automatically stored when the shutter release button is pressed to the second pressure point. * Various exposure modes enhance flexibility, quickness and not least, your creative freedom. * High-eyepoint viewfinder ends need to press eye against eyecup to see image clearly all the way into its corners. * Important parameters are displayed optimally in viewfinder: Shutter speed, aperture, operating mode, exposure metering mode and the exposure counter. * Important for time exposures: An integrated shutter prevents light from reaching the film through the eyepiece. * Eyeglass wearers will be especially pleased with the diopter compensation range from 2 to +2 in half steps, enabling the photographer to focus and expose with or without using the eyeglasses. * LEICA R9 provides three exposure options for flash photography: fully automatic P mode, selective flash mode F, and High Speed Synchronization; with a HSS flash unit, allows flash exposures with shutter speeds as high as 1/8000, for pleasing portraits even in daylight and at full aperture, without harsh contrasts. * All operating elements positioned conveniently for intuitive operation without moving the eye away from the viewfinder. * Rugged metal body fits very nicely in hands. * Operating mode selector dial can be locked to prevent unintended changes of selected settings. * Eyecup locks in place, so it won’t get lost. * Film type 35mm. * Dimensions (W x H x D) 6 1/4 x 4 x 2 7/16 inches. * Weighs 28oz. (790g). Leica 3 Year Passport/5 Year Limited Warranty.
