FOREWORD Dear Customer,
Leica would like to thank you for purchasing the LeicaS and congratulate
you on your choice. With this unique medium-format digital SLR camera,
you have made an excellent choice.
We wish you a great deal of pleasure and success using your new Leica
S.
In order to make best use of all the opportunities offered by this high
performance camera, we recommend that you first read this instruction
manual.
Your Leica Camera AG
Note:
Leica is constantly working on developing and optimizing the LeicaS. As
many functions on digital cameras are controlled purely electronically,
improvements and extensions to the range of functions may need to be
installed on the camera at a later date. To do this, Leica releases what
are known as firmware updates at irregular intervals. Cameras are always
supplied from the factory with the latest firmware, but you can easily
download the updates to your camera yourself from our website.
If you register as an owner on the Leica Camera website, you will receive
a newsletter informing you when a new firmware update is available.
Further information on registration and on firmware updates for your
Leica S and on any changes or additions to the details in this manual can
be found on our website under "Customer Service" at:
https://owners.leica-camera.com
To check whether your camera and lenses are running the latest firmware
version, select menu option "Firmware" (see p. 66, 16-19).

WARNING MESSAGES
• Modern electronic components react sensitively to electrostatic
discharge. As you can easily pick up charges of tens of thousands of
volts by walking on synthetic carpets, for example, a discharge can
occur when you touch your Leica S, particularly if it is lying on a con-
ductive surface. If only the camera body is touched, this discharge is
harmless to the electronics. However, despite built-in safety circuits,
outer contacts such as those in the bottom of the camera should not
be touched if at all possible for safety reasons.
• For any cleaning of the contacts, please do not use an optical microfi-
ber cloth (synthetic); use a cotton or linen cloth instead! Before touch-
ing the contacts, you can make sure you discharge any electrostatic
charge by deliberately touching a heating or water pipe (conductive,
earthed material). You can also avoid soiling and oxidization of the
contacts by storing your Leica S in a dry place with the lens or bayonet
cover fitted!
• Use only the recommended accessories to prevent faults, short cir-
cuits or electric shock.
• The Leica S is protected against spray water and dust. However, it
should not be exposed to rain for prolonged periods.
• Do not attempt to remove parts of the body (covers); qualified repairs
can be carried out only at authorized service centers.
LEGAL INFORMATION
• Please ensure that you strictly observe copyright laws. The recording
and publication of pre-recorded media such as tapes, CDs, or other
published or broadcast material may contravene copyright laws.
• This also applies to all of the software supplied.
• The SD, HDMI, CF and USB logos are trademarks.
• Other names, company and product names referred to in these
instructions are trademarks or registered trademarks of the relevant
companies.
The CE identification of our products documents compliance with
the fundamental requirements of the respective valid EU direc-
tives.

approvals for this camera under the point Regulatory Information.
DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND
ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
(Applies within the EU, and for other European coun-
tries with segregated waste collection systems.)
This device contains electrical and/or electronic components and should
therefore not be disposed of in general household waste. Instead it
should be disposed of at a recycling collection point provided by the local
authority.
This costs you nothing. If the device itself contains replaceable (recharge-
able) batteries, these must be removed first and, if necessary, also be
disposed of in line with the relevant regulations.
Further information on this issue is available from your local administra-
tion, your local waste collection company, or in the store where you
purchased this device.
