This only came up when I tried to take pictures in light too dim for the auto focus to work. I am astonished at the quality of the images it produces. I'm afraid my only-six-month-old M7 is a lonely pup at the moment, to say nothing of my even more aged M3. But, when something doesn't behave as I'm expecting it to, the engineer in me rises to the fore and asks, "Why?" Can't help this. Been an engineer too long, I guess. Started asking "why" when I was a kid and never stopped. >Dick said and asked: >Subject: [Leica] Digilux 2 Manual Focus Questions > (snip) >>>>>I'm still trying to figure out what this camera can do and what >>>>>it can't. <<<<, > >Oh jeeeesh don't do that it'll drive you into the looney-bin house. >Best to take pictures, use it as much as you can making sure it's >doing ok and giving you good captures.
