dml84_L Posted September 7, 2020 Share #1 Posted September 7, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, I find it quit useful that the Q2 zooms in manual mode, for focusing. Is it possible in AF mode? Havent found the option... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dml84_L Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted September 7, 2020 No, that is the option for automatic magnification in manual mode - not AF. I guess it's not possible then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vedivv Posted September 8, 2020 Share #6 Posted September 8, 2020 Zooming in when AF only works with MF. Even with spot focus, Q2 often focus on the wrong thing when the background is bright. I would love to have this AF zoom too. Something to write Leica about and perhaps include in the next firmware update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
antigallican Posted September 8, 2020 Share #7 Posted September 8, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have a Q1 not Q2 but I think finding the most contrasty part of the thing you want to be focussed is what makes the autofocus much more accurate. I do it on the back button - focus then recompose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly what I had in mind as it must be held or locked/unlocked. I’ll ignore it for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marchyman Posted September 9, 2020 Share #10 Posted September 9, 2020 You must have a Q2. The Q does not require the button to be held with Focus set to AFs and zoom button set to AFL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did it once and just keep a copy of the settings on an SD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
