Advertisement Posted July 12 Posted July 12 Hi mort linder, Take a look here focus peaking not working. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
lct Posted July 14 Share #2 Posted July 14 Are you sure focus peaking is on? I have only red, blue and green settings on my M240, not white. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lct Posted July 14 Share #4 Posted July 14 Focus peaking is not the M240's forte. See the thread below. If it shows no peaking at all, you may wish to try a factory reset. https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/276652-focus-peaking/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted July 14 Share #5 Posted July 14 What do you mean by automatic focus (on a Leica M.......)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotomas Posted July 14 Share #8 Posted July 14 With what lens? It doesn't work with all lenses. The lens has to have enough contrast and sharpness (my guess). It works with my Leica-lenses, but once I had adapted a old Minolta 1,8/50 mm. With this nothing shows up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted July 14 Share #9 Posted July 14 Even with the sharper lenses, focus peaking is too discrete on my M240. And its colors don't help as much as white or yellow for instance. It is not a camera i keep for LV mode though. In RF mode it has not those issues fortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The camera has some high standards regarding its preferred lenses. 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
