The little button on the front where the film rewind thingie was, when pressed in when Live View is enabled, will magnify with variable magnification and focus peaking. It doesn't work all that well with the Noctilux (focus peaking) as the lens doesn't have enough contrast at f/1. Also, the focus peaking is too coarse to work with extremely wide angle lenses. You're much better off using the rangefinder with those.
