  1. Thanks for your reply Firmware wiped and reinstalled and all is well again ...
  2. S 007 can anyone help with identifying the cause of this fault please?
  3. Top plate engraving and front screw, must be the Zenit M-P
  4. Leica's latest statement seems to have confirmed that it offers a 5 year manufacturer's warranty on new products and a 1 year warranty on repairs outside of that warranty … notwithstanding previous promises to the contrary

    Leica M 10

    You conclude M10 is the dead end of the M system By the same token it could be considered the pinnacle But Leica states it to be a milestone which would indicate a longer road

    Leica M 10

    Can't help thinking that this camera didn't need a launch presentation … it would have been more fun to just send stock to all stores unannounced and let people stumble across it on the shelves. 'New, improved, slimmer M'

    I wonder if we are still on 'PUSH' 100 ISO? I mean 'PULL'!
  9. Q&A with Stefan Daniel from 2010 LHSA Meeting in Wetzlar by David Farkas - published on Red Dot Forum September 13 2012: Would it be possible to have a shutterless camera using the new CMOS technology by using an electronic shutter and do away with all mechanical components? This is, of course, the dream to have a camera with basically no moving parts inside. The current sensor technology does not allow this 100% right now. What you can do is have a simplified shutter, which only either starts the exposure or ends the exposure. The sensor itself is not able to start or end the exposure on current models. Would you consider producing the Tri-Elmar-M again? I’ve had a number of requests like this. To be frank, we never had much fun producing that lens as it is. To put it another way, it didn’t earn money and created a lot of headaches because it is quite a complicated lens on a mechanical level. When you turn the focal length ring, it moves the lens head in one direction and it moves the cam selector as well. It was a piece of art, but it is virtually not produceable in industry-standard production. But, we’ll take this demand for a Tri-Elmar into consideration and I can’t exclude that we won’t make a new Tri-Elmar in the future. With the camera I just described it would also make sense to have such a lens maybe not with click stops, but with a continuous zoom.
  10. Is not "professional" the status of the photographer ... not the camera? (as a professional photographer using M only, there seems to be no professional business service)
