[Leica] shooting the M240

[myrmidons at me.com (Fred Bastiat)]

I'm just learning the M 240 too.

I have focus aid and focus peaking switched to "on", and I then saved those 
settings as a user profile.

Now, as long as LV (live view) is turned on, I have focus peaking working. 
And I don't need to press the front "focus" button. Just turn the focusing 
ring on the lens and the camera switches it on.

Hope that helps.
