TDR Posted May 26, 2018 Share #1  Posted May 26, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Someone in a Leica Blog interview said that one can set the electronic viewfinder on the SL to see in black and white. Or at least it appeared to be what he was saying. Is there a setting that turns the viewfinder into black and white? I can’t find a mention of it in the manual.  Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

darylgo Posted May 26, 2018 Share #3 Â Posted May 26, 2018 Raw + jpeg will give you a color dng and a when the jpeg is set to monochrome the viewfinder will be monochrome as well as the resulting jpeg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got a SL with a years leica warranty and want to use my M and ltm lenses on it. I mostly shoot film but no longer have my darkroom so I am frustrated with film scanners. After using the T and the CL I thought I would go big! Happy Holidays and thanks again. Rick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KariP Posted December 6, 2020 Share #6 Â Posted December 6, 2020 You don't need to shoot DNG + jpeg to have viewfinder B&W. Just shoot DNG but set jpeg to monochrome and you compose in B&W, see red focus assistant and get colour DNGs out of camera. Of which the ones you want in B&W can be treated to B&W with colour mix to simulate colour filters. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
