HI everyone, I am seeking the advice and input from this expert group. I have been shooting the M10 without issue until 2 nights ago. I came home, imported by photos into adobe Lightroom, but the images are all improperly oriented. The landscape images are generally updside down, while portrait oriented shots are oriented as landscapes. I tried resetting the camera. I also tried taking the battery out, tried a new SD card, and finally tried another computer, a separate Lightroom, and ultimately iPhoto, with the problem being consistently reproducible. I had now issues downloading nearly 2000 images until this cropped up, and now it's a consistent problem. Has anybody else had this issue? Am I being ignorant to some setting in the camera or lightroom? I figured that since I am reproducing this accross computers and via different software, it's a camera issue. Your thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated in advance. -
Leica Camera behauptet, bei der neuen Leica M10 sei ISO 100/21° keine Pull-Stufe, sondern uneingeschränkt nutzbar. Ich war die ganze Zeit schon skeptisch und habe es heute, als die Sonne endlich einmal herauskam, bei einer Hochkontrast-Situation (regennasse Straße im Gegenlicht) ausprobiert. Ergebnis: Von wegen! ISO 100/21° ist bei der M10 definitiv eine Pull-Stufe. Man gewinnt ein wenig Schattenzeichnung, verliert aber eine Menge Lichterzeichnung – wie bei digitalen Pull-Stufen üblich. Der Verlust in den Lichtern ist größer als der Gewinn in den Schatten. Für maximalen Belichtungsumfang wähle man also, wie auch schon bei der M (Typ 240), besser ISO 200/24°. Allerdings scheint mir der Verlust insgesamt nicht ganz so groß zu sein wie bei der Pull-Stufe der M (Typ 240) – was wohl der Grund dafür sein mag, daß Leica Camera die ISO-100/21°-Einstellung der M10 etwas mutig als "vollwertig" propagiert. Ich denke, bei niedrigen und mittleren Motivkontrasten wird man wohl tatsächlich keine praktisch relevanten Einschränkungen bemerken. Doch bei hohen Kontrasten sollte man von ISO 100/21° lieber die Finger lassen.

Well, as an experienced M film user, you can imagine my disappointment ... I picked up my M10 in Sydney today and took about 100 shots at a family gathering with two lenses, a ZM Biogon 35/2 and a Summarit 75/2.5, shooting with auto ISO. On (I think) all the ISO 2500 images, I got horizontal lines that run all the way across the image. The lines seem to be 1 pixel high: see the first and third images I've uploaded. The files I've uploaded are 100% crops from the DNGs processed in Lightroom 5.7.1 (clicking auto exposure to bring out the issue, but it's visible on the straight conversions too). The same problem is also visible, in the same places, on the camera JPGs. Unsurprisingly, it's easiest to detect in shadow areas, but none of these was massively over or underexposed. It happened with both lenses (the Biogon hand-coded as a Summicron 35 and the Summarit auto-coding). Weirdly, I cannot find these problem lines at any other ISO sensitivities, and auto ISO picked a large range, from about 400 up to 10,000. There just seems to be something wrong with 2500. The other problem is a number of what appear to be hot pixels, which are not confined to ISO 2500. I've attached a shot (the second one, with the bottom of the beer bottle) that was taken at ISO 3200 and shows them fairly clearly. The camera is running firmware 1.3.4.0. I should add that I'm not at all new to Lightroom or digital generally. I've shot Nikon digital for many years. But this is my first digital M. So: have I got a dud body, and should I just take it back for exchange for a new one? All the best, Richard (I should also add that I've read this forum for a long time, and found it very helpful and informative, but I've never felt I had anything to add or any query to raise. I've searched the forum but can't find posts dealing with similar problems to the one I'm experiencing. The closest was about an M10 with horizontal banding, but that post did not seem to be about lines only 1 pixel high.)

Hi all, I am eagerly waiting for an update to C1 Pro with support for the M10. I never really paid much attention as to how long it usually takes to have a new camera added to the software. Does anybody have any knowledge of this (or waiting times experience?) ? Thanks, Andreas

I would love to know if Leica will bring a M10 Monochrom to the market What do you think? Will Leica do this? Kind Regards, Barend Jan

There is a small panel with a graphic of (perhaps) and SD card on it between the battery chamber and the screw mount at the bottom of the M10 just behind the baseplate. The illustration in the manual shows the panel but does not name it. Does anyone know what it is? TIA - Vikas

I am greatly enjoying using the Leica M10. For me, it is the nicest handling digital M yet. I like taking wide-angle shots at vintage and classic car shows with some of my favourite lenses such as the 16-18-21mm Wide Angle Tri-Elmar (WATE) and the 24mm Elmar. At the recent Irish Classic and Vintage Motor Show I gave both of these lenses an outing on the M10. I tested both lenses in advance with the 'Frankenfinder' optical multi-finder and 'Visoflex' EVF for the M10 and I decided to go with the optical finder as the frame-lines enabled framing to avoid too many other spectators getting in the photos. My favourite combination was, in fact, the 24mm Elmar with the optical finder which has a setting for 24mm lenses. I like the EVF, but I prefer rangefinder focussing and also the use of frame-lines for wide-angle shots, so the EVF stayed in the bag for the car show. An article showing some photos taken with the M10 at the car show is here: http://macfilos.com/photo/2017/7/17/leica-m10-meets-the-motoring-stars-of-yesteryear I would be interested to hear from anyone who has used the WATE or 24mm Elmar with either the 'Frankenfinder' or the EVF on the M10.

Just a short two and a half months ago I purchased my first Leica (M10) and haven't looked back. Never in my lifetime have I made such a sizable purchase AND not feel an ounce of buyer's remorse - the experience has been that good. Even though I am no photographer I do understand that the M10 is like any other tool: it has its primary applications and was designed to do certain things well, not all things well. So the question is: if you own the M10, do you pair it with another body when you travel? If you do, which one(s) and what are your reasons for doing so?

Does anyone know if it's possible to GPS tag images by using a smartphone's GPS? In theory it should be: M10 connected to iphone via Bluetooth iPhone sends GPS info to M10 M10 adds this to the exif of each image I bought the EVF solely for GPS; but now I'm thinking of returning it, because it blocks the shutter dial partially, and just isn't in line with how a rangefinder is supposed to be used (and I would never use the EVF), in my opinion. But connecting through a smartphone makes sense and is far more elegant.

I picked up my M10 today (happy as a child), but got annoyed during the unpacking of the camera. De plastic foil protecting the cover plate as kinda attached to it. And with attached I mean it literally. When I removed it, the plastic came of, but the glue not so much. Nothing a bit of warm water and mild detergent couldn't solve (no pun intended). The attached photo shows the problem. Everything shiny is the glue. Anyone else experienced this? I reported it to the dealer, and they said they would take it up the chain.

I posted these two pictures in the Summaron-M f/5.6 28mm thread and several people liked the first one better. First, this is a restaurant called Da Conch Shack on Providenciales, an island in Turks & Caicos. The man in both pictures is the same waiter. (I used the new Sumaron-28 and the M10). At first, when I examined in Lightroom the pictures shot that day, I instantaneously selected the second picture as the one to process, like selecting a frame from a contact sheet of a roll of 35mm film. After that I went on to process the first picture, which I liked less. However, when deciding which picture to post to my flickr site, I selected the first picture because I thought viewers would like it more because, overall, it's a pleasing composition in terms of balance, the top window not being cut off, and giving more of what people often call a "sense of place" — it is also a prettier scene: I'm using the word "prettier" intentionally here. Nevertheless, I kept on looking at the second picture and continued to feel that it's a better photograph: a more dynamic composition, and I liked the oranges in the sand, at the bottom of the frame, against the blues in the image; but, most strikingly, I liked the gesture of the tree matching the gesture of the man, "gesture" in the sense of attitude, as in a "gesture drawing." For me, the second image says more and says it more forcefully — more meaning and more expression. In this sense, the chair in the left bottom foreground I see helpful rather than, as many might feel, unneeded. Generally, my feeling is that, in judging images, our instantaneous first choice is, in most cases, likely to be the right one — the right one for ourselves, that is. Which picture do you prefer, and why? _______________ Alone in Bangkok essay on BURN Magazine

Just got the M10 on Fri. and it seems like in a few shots with highlights that are 2-3 stops over clip I get these bands that bleed out from them as dark lines. (Yes I know I'm not supposed to overexpose that much but sometimes there are 18K's pointed at windows, and I do have lower exposed frames that are fine). I read a thread earlier suspecting that this was the highlights bleeding into the black balance area because of an improper sensor seal. So is this just an M10 thing or do I need to demand a replacement? Other than that I'm smitten with the camera!

The 24MP images were scaled (bicubic smoother) to match the 42MP of the Sony so that any differences would be obvious. Identical sharpening was added in RAW conversion on output. This represents a 200% view. So resolution wise I see A7rII>M10>A9. The M10 seems to have absolutely no AA filter and is prone to a little moire, but it’s easily fixable in ACR/Lightroom. However it's coming amazingly close to the rII with nearly 2x the photosites. The rII seems to have a weak AA filter, so moire is visible only in extreme blow ups but also easily fixable. The A9 seems to have a moderate AA filter and is the lowest resolution, but no Moire at all. The Leica seems like the cleanest of the three, although the noise is minimal on all of them. Full frame for reference...

Greetings! I just returned from my Leica dealer with the M10 (after a lengthy wait), trading in my M240 which I had for a few months to shorten the wait. First impressions in one word: Lovely. But that's probably not news to most here. I shoot mostly portraits, and I'm wondering what your experiences are with the M10 in this area. I typically use the 50mm Summicron, but have ordered a vintage Jupiter 8 (85mm f2.0) since it's supposed to have a very pretty bokeh. What lenses do you prefer for portraits / people? In my experience, working with amateur models, people react very positively towards a Leica M. They seem to be a bit more relaxed compared to having some massive DSLR (with a 84mm f1.4 attached) pointing at their face. What are your experiences? Greetings from Hamburg! Markus PS: In case somebody is interested, I share a few shots of my work on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/larojima/

I am not sure if this is lack of my knowledge but in the setup I defined metering mode as follows: INFO summary displays: ... what suggests that I rather defined "Center-weighted" than "Spot". Any ideas?

OK, I'll admit it I'm a bit nutty for Summicrons. I have the 35mm ASPH the 50mm classic and the recently I found a 40mm (from the CL) for a measly $450 on fleabay. OK you say, why? You have two perfectly good lenses that actually have matching frame lines on your M10. There are two very good reasons I can come up with, the first is size. The lens is downright diminutive. It takes the M10 from small mirrorless to large point and shoot. It's now suitable for stuffing in a Billingham Aeva 5 pouch and throwing on a belt even for casual nights out or chasing the kids around the playground. Number 2 is it's actually a spectacular little lens with all the character and sharpness you could ever ask for. I'm actually finding it perfect for environmental portraiture and general street pics. It's also well suited to making multiple image panorama stitches with it's natural perspective. More than anything though it's just a pretty lens and it can do about 80% of the job of both a 35mm and a 50mm as well as have it's own character. OK so how do you frame it? Honestly it's not hard, the 50mm frame lines come up with it attached and I just imagine the frame is just outside those lines and I'm pretty close. For those instances where precise framing is necessary I always have live view. lastly I have great little Minolta double asphere close up diopter that I've adapted and this makes the little 40mm perfect for certain macro shots (especially watches and camera gear).

Hallo, Weis hier jemand ob es eine Möglichkeit gibt in der App ( Iphone ) alle Fotos zu markieren um diese herunterladen zu können? Bis jetzt muss ich jedes Foto einzeln markieren und dann kann ich alle herunterladen. Das ist super umständlich, gerade wenn es viele aufnahmen sind.

Has anyone checked out the new Peak Design Leash strap with an M10. The camera attachments are now smaller to get through the camera lugs. I like the concept and the company quotes that the loops are very strong however I've just got that niggle in the back of my mind. Regards, Les

Seit Monatsbeginn habe ich eine M10. Ich bin von der Kamera sehr angetan und habe schon schöne Fotos damit gemacht. Was mich etwas irritiert, ist der Hauptschalter. Es ist meines Wissens die einzige Leica, bei der die Schalterstellungen nicht beschriftet sind. Genauer gesagt, in der Stellung 'Aus' ist ein roter Punkt zu sehen. Und das bedeutet für mich 'Achtung!'. Bei meiner R3 hatte ich einen kleinen leuchtroten Aufkleber so angebracht, dass er nur bei eingeschalteter Kamera sichtbar war, damit ich nicht vergesse, auszuschalten. Ich habe dieses System bei verschiedenen anderen Kameras auch verwendet. Und jetzt ist es (für mich) bei der M10 umgekehrt: Das Warnsignal ist nur bei ausgeschalteter Kamera sichtbar. Auch bei anderen technischen Geräten kenne ich das rote Signal für das eingeschaltete stromführende (und stromverbrauchende) Gerät. Ich weiß, das ist Jammern auf sehr hohem Niveau. Trotzdem stört mich das an dieser so schönen Kamera. Dem Urteil vieler, die M10 sei die beste digitale M, schließe ich mich trotzdem an.

Wie sind denn Eure Erfahrungen mit der Akkulaufzeit? Auch, wie sich die Verwendung des Visoflex auswirkt. Mich würde interessieren, wie sich die M10 im Vergleich zur doch recht schwachbrüstigen M9 schlägt. Auf Urlaubsreisen reicht bei mir eine Akkuladung gerade mal einen Tag, wenn man die Aufnahmen öfters mal hinsichtl. Clipping/Ausschnitt/Schärfe kontrolliert (insgesamt wohl nicht mehr als 120-200 Aufnahmen). Danke.
