Best general settings

Hello. Newbie to this forum but long time Leica user. I just today received my Leica TL2. I am a Leica shooter but I’ve been using a M9 and a M4-2. Can someone advise me on just a starting point with general menu settings. Most of my shots with the TL2 will be landscapes, sunsets, and nature shots. I know as I get used to it I’ll develop menu settings that fit me but can someone get me started so I can get out and use this today and tomorrow. Thank you.

Alan, welcome.

Why not start by using the default settings?

If you prefer capturing raw files, change the settings in the menu and the save those settings as a User Profile. Name it, if you can.

Assess your results and make any necessary changes. SAVE your current (amended) settings in a second User Profile.

Continue with this process, incrementally modifying your profiles until you are satisfied. I am contually refining my User Profiles

Borrowing other users' settings is a bit like borrowing someone else's shoes. They might fit, but are seldom as comfortable as shoes made for you.

Thanks wda. I wasn’t sure if this even came with default settings. I’ve been reading way to much about the TL2 on line. Thank you for snapping me back to reality.
