[Leica] Snapshot Profile mode

[John McMaster]

If it is similar to the M9 (never used an M-E) then there should be no danger of entering snapshot mode, never done it in nearly six years of M9 ownership ;-) 

1) Never felt the urge to find out what it does....
2) Doubt it
3) Never needed it

Hi John, 
Thanks for the link, unfortunately the thread is rather confused and the concluding comments not very re-assuring. I don't feel my 3 questions have been answered, I hope others on the list will be able to help.Thanks,Bob

Hello list,
I've just started using a digital Leica, the M-E. My questions are about the Snapshot Profile mode, which I'd personally like to have as little to do with as possible!
1) In the Snapshot Profile mode does the camera only shoot JPEGs?
2) Is there a risk of accidentally switching on the Snapshot Profile mode?
3) Is there a way of making sure the Snapshot Profile mode can't be switched on accidentally? Can it be permanently disabled?
Thanks,Bob
