Hi

 

When I have a ND filter attached to the Q and am using MF I get there symbols on the screen in the top right hand corner. They go away with a half press of the shutter but keep reappearing when I move the focus ring.

 

It is hard to see them in the pic but they are:

 

A magnifying symbol with a + in it.

A "+3" in the circle.

The word [set] next to the circle.

 

Can't find out what they are for.

 

Anybody?

Problem solved by Charles on Leica DPReview:

 

Since the camera offers 3x and 6x magnification, you can guess. Also, the manual refers to a Set button. See English page 179, for example. Probably reminds you that you can change to 6X using that button.

 

Tried it and it works as Charles has described. 

 

Got to love forums.
