[Leica] Live view and TTL "m"

[afirkin at afirkin.com (afirkin at afirkin.com)]

I did wonder if the TTL oly attachment and the live view on the M would be
a bit of a gimmick, but its been very useful, especially with lenses such
as the Wide Tri-elmar. You can now very accurately frame your image and
even focus closer than 0.7m. Here is an example of an 8 second exposure of
a fountain. I was able to just keep the arches of the water spouts in the
image without letting the flare get to bad from the lights just above the
level of the upper image.

and here I was able to raise the camera above head high to avoid dross in
the foreground. Not a great shot, but it was what I was after, weird angle
and all :-)
