Bruce Posted February 12, 2016 Share #1 Posted February 12, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) My 240MP viewfinder shows the 28mm frame line no matter what lens I have mounted--35mm, 50mm, 90mm. I turn them all to the lock position, but the frame lines read only the 28/135 boxes. Any ideas? Or do I have to send it back to Leica? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajmarton1 Posted February 12, 2016 Share #2 Posted February 12, 2016 I believe there is an auto lens detect option in the menu setting. Make sure it is on. Andrew Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdlaing Posted February 12, 2016 Share #3 Posted February 12, 2016 I believe there is an auto lens detect option in the menu setting. Make sure it is on. Andrew That has no effect on the frame lines. They are mechanical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schrödinger's cat Posted February 13, 2016 Share #5 Posted February 13, 2016 The mechanical connection that changes the frame lines is at the 3 o'clock position when looking into the camera lens mount. It's a small silver lever just behind the lens mount. It might be useful to have a look at it and see if it appears to be damaged or stuck. The photo is actually an M240 M-P which is a bit different with the preview lever, but you'll be able to see the difference. Welcome, dear visitor!
