Manicouagan1 Posted April 23, 2014 Share #1 Posted April 23, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Sometimes when I use the Multifunctional Grip for my M240 with GPS turned on I get incorrect timestamps on images. Sometimes the image timestamps seem to give GMT, other times the correct time for the current time zone and sometimes something else. Is this a "feature"of the multifunctional grip GPS function?

FlashGordonPhotography Posted April 23, 2014 Share #2 Posted April 23, 2014 It's a known issue. I was just reading about the same thing on Thorsten's site yesterday. Gordon Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's a feature, but an ugly feature just like lock ups. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McMaster Posted April 23, 2014 Share #4 Posted April 23, 2014 I have given up using mine, as well as time issues it never seems to lock on to a GPS link in NZ (linked issue) and the handling is not improved for most lenses. john Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marknorton Posted April 24, 2014 Share #5 Posted April 24, 2014 I agree, the grip was not worth the extended wait or the cost, unlike the R to M adapter. This year, I have been using R lenses more than M lenses. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamiji Posted April 24, 2014 Share #6 Posted April 24, 2014 Assuming that Leica will correct some of these issues... How? How much of the code is in the Grip? Can they just issue a firmware update to the camera? Or do they need to recall and redesign? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much as I adore Leica, I do sometimes wonder why I stick with digital Ms. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
