The LEICAFLEX® SL 2 is a modern single-lens-reflex camera with selective light metering through the lens. The large, bright LEICAFLEX viewfinder gives you all the necessary information. At the same time it functions as the control and composing centre for focusing, spot exposure measurement, assessment of the pictorial effect, and perspective. Both the shutter speed set on the dial and the lens stop can be read at the same time. [. . . ] the rotatable diaphragm pre-setting ring (11), the fixed ring with depth-of-field indication (12), and the distance setting ring (13) are arranged identically. The left hand thus becomes very easily accustomed to rapid and reliable operation with all focal lengths.
Automatic diaphragm All LEICAFLEX-R lenses are fitted with an automatic diaphragm. before and after exposure -- at full aperture and thus maximum viewfinder brightness. Immediately before the exposure or when the depth-of-field button (6) is depressed the lens diaphragm is closed to the pre-set value.

Depth-of-field button The LEICAFLEX SL 2 measures the exposure at full lens aperture. The depth-offield button permits the assessment in the viewfinder of the depth of field to be expected with the pre-set stop-down. When the button (6) is pressed the lens diaphragm is closed to the preset value. Please note: During exposure measurement the button (6) must not be pressed.
Depth-of-field scale The depth-of-field scale indicates the range of the depth of field for the object distance set on the distance setting ring. lens on 5m, the sharpness will extend from 3m to about 20m when the lens is stopped down to f/11. If you stop down only to f/4, however, sharpness will extend from 4m to about 8m. Detailed information about depth of field with all focal lengths is contained in our Depth-of-field Table No. 110-57.

Lens hoods All LEICAFLEX lenses have their functionally designed lens hood. It should always be used as a matter of course, because it effectively protects the lens against stray light and flare as well as against raindrops and fingermarks. On the wide-angle and standard lenses the lens hood is attached with the white dot facing white dot and locked by a clockwise turn. To unlock it, slightly raise the lens hood and turn it anti-clockwise to remove it. The lens hood of these lenses also serves as adapter for series filters.
On long-focal-length lenses the lens hood is permanently fixed and can be extended like a telescope.

Series filters With lenses of up to 50mm focal length inclusive the filters are inserted in the lens hood. The lenses with telescoping built-on lens hood include a screwed-in adapter ring accommodating series filters. To insert the filter the adapter ring is unscrewed, the filter inserted, and the adapter ring replaced to secure it. The ring can be readily released if it is gripped only on one side and therefore "strainfree".
Self-timer* The self-timer (delayed-action mechanism) operates with all shutter speeds. The self-timer is wound by a 180° turn of the lever (5) and started by means of the release button (3). Shortly before it reaches this position the shutter is released.
If the lever (5) has been turned only through about 90° for winding, release cannot occur, even if the lever is turned back manually to its original position. Remedy: wind the self-timer completely and release by means of release button (3). * The LEICAFLEX SL 2 MOT special version does not include a self-timer.

Flash Table Flash synchronization All the commercially available flash units with standardized flash plugs (co-axial plugs) or with accessory-shoe contact can be used on the LEICAFLEX SL 2. [. . . ] ELPRO close-up attachments The ELPRO close-up attachments are achromatic supplementary front lenses which increase the focusing range and because of their achromatic correction also improve the image quality in the close-up range. Exposure technique including exposure measurement is the same as in the normal focusing range. ELPRO close-up attachments are available for the 50mm SUMMICRON-R f/2, the 90mm lenses and the 135mm ELMARIT-R f/2. 8.
