I'm using a Leica Monochrom with an Elmarit M lens, 28 mm, Made in Canada.

It's f 2.8, ser 2978547

 

When I go into the camera's menu to tell the camera what lens I'm using I don't see this lens as an option in the list of usable lenses. What lens should I set the camera for ?

Thanks

Your lens is not an Elmarit-M but an Elmarit—it's the second version of the 28/2.8 (the current Elmarit-M 28 mm Asph being the fifth). The serial number 2978550 was the last of this type ;)

I don't have an M Monochrom but I guess the M9's lens menu is the same as the M Monochrom's. So—yes, your 2nd-version Elmarit 28 mm 11801 is not included in the list. I would simply resort to the 3rd-version Elmarit-M 28 mm 11804. Or better yet, try all available options, then pick the one that gives the best results.
