Just got an email from Leica Australia that there's a firmware update for the Leica SL (typ 601). Version 4.1 Unfortunately, the link to download the firmware in the email is 404 broken, but a bit of web-search magic and found it on the Leica US downloads page: Downloads | Leica Camera US (leica-camera.com) Seems to be mainly focused on SL series lens firmware updates. Caveat – haven't installed it yet.

I bought a T lens to use on my SL - the 23/2.0 - but when I attach it I get the message "Lens firmware not supported. Please update firmware." The firmware in my SL is up to date - 1.2. Does the lens have to be updated on a Leica T camera? I hope not. I don't have one, don't know anybody who has one, and the nearest Leica dealer is in Atlanta. Surely there has to be some way around this!

I downloaded and installed the 1.0.2.0 firmware update for my Monochrom Typ 246. But I couldn't find on the Leica website a PDF like they issued for the previous firmware update that explained what the update fixed and/or changed. Is there one? Does anyone know what difference the new firmware makes in the camera's features or functionality? Thank you.

Hallo zusammen, da ich heute Abend etwas Zeit hatte, habe ich mir die Zeit genommen und die aktuell von LC zur Verfügung gestellte Firmware Version auf meine M9 zu installieren. Es handelt sich um die M9/-P/M-E FW-Versionen 1.210 und 1.216. Firmware Version 1.210 (Release Notes) Soweit so gut. Doch dann wollte ich mal schauen, ob man das Profil auch "manuell" auswählen kann. - Ich hatte keinen Eintrag in der Liste. Selbes Spiel mit der 1.216er FW, obwohl die Installation und der Neustart ohne Schwierigkeiten durchgeführt werden konnten. Firmware Version 1.216 (Release Notes) U.a. sind auch das neuere Noctilux 0,95/50mm ASPH nicht in der Liste auffindbar. Geht wohl nur bei Obj.typ-Erkennung "Automatisch", die ich nicht nutze. Finde ich jedoch schon etwas seltsam. Ist irgendwie nur die halbe Miete auch wenn es sehr löblich ist, dass LC für so ein "betagtes" Stück Technik noch FW-Updates ausgibt. Geht das mit der manuellen Auswahl im Menüpunkt "Obj.typ-Erkennung" nur mir so oder hat das noch jemand anderes beobachtet? Gruß, Stephan

I just brought a D2 but I have a problem. When I turn on the D2 without the SD card all the function is good but once I inserted the SD card the shutter speed button is out of control. When I press down the shutter speed button it take around 10-15 seconds to shoot a photo and each 10-15 seconds it will automatically shoot another photo. And so wired when I look at the photo info in my PC it shows it is took by D3 not D2 but every time I reboot the camera it will allow me to press the shutter speed button again ... here is photo that I check my firmware in D2 ... anyone know how to fix it ?

Hi zusammen, ich habe mir eine gebrauchte Leica X113 vor ein paar Tagen gekauft und habe nun eine Frage bezüglich des AF's. Man findet leider nicht allzu viel dazu - bitte entschuldigt, falls die Frage schon beantwortet wurde, hab sie wie gesagt nicht gefunden. Nutzung AF - - - - - - - - - - Ich habe alle Einstellungen mal getestet, also Spot, 1 Punkt, 11 Punkt und habe regelmäßig beim Fokussieren das Problem, das nachdem das Fokusfeld grün wurde und ich dann den Auslöser ganz durchdrücke, die Kamera erstmal nicht auslöst bzw. blockiert. Das AF Feld verliere ich dabei nicht - es bleibt weiterhin grün. Bei längerem Gedrückthalten (vielleicht 1-2 Sekunden) löst die Kamera dann erst aus. Ist das normal? Wollte auch eine passende Firmware runterladen, aber da findet sich leider nichts mehr auf der Leica-Seite. Hat hier vielleicht jemand einen Tipp, wie man an die bisherige Updates rankommt? Bei Leica habe ich heute mal nachgefragt per Mail. Meine Firmware Version "72a" kommt mir auch recht seltsam vor ... 🙆‍♂️ Euch schon jetzt ganz lieben Dank und liebe Grüße, Gensu

So does one simply register a D-Lux 7 on Leica website and Downloadable Firmware/Software to Edit Raw images shot on a D-Lux 7 on Photoshop? I know one could simply shoot Raw on a D-Lux 3 and download images to a computer and open them in PS. Anyone know about this topic in depth? Grateful to learn about this. -
The Calonox View usb-c port supports charging and the transfer of data (pictures, videos). It works with usb-c to usb-a cables with chargers or computers which have an usb-a port. However, the port does not work with an usb-c to usb-c cable. I tested multiple cables and different chargers and computers. Always the same negative outcome. The Calonox View device comes with an strange usb-c to usb-a/video-chinch splitter cable. This cable works - but obviously for charging and data transfer per usb-a only. I can't find the reason for this unfortunate limitation - especially considering that usb-c shall replace usb-a ports. Has someone a solution? Also, I can't figure out how to update the Calonox View firmware - nor did I find any information regarding firmwares for this device on Leica's pages. In my case, the installed firmware is v5.0 but I'm wondering how Leica want's to maintain such a high-end device without software updates? Has anybody a solutionn to this problem?

Das Calonox View har eine USB-C Schnittstelle zum Laden des Akkus als auch zum Übertragen von Daten (Fotos). Verwendet man eine USB-C zu USB-A Kabel funktioniert die Schnittstelle auch sowohl am Rechner als auch mit verschiedenen Ladegeräten. Verwendet man allerdings ein USB-C zu USB-C Kabel, funktioniert die Schnittstelle nicht. Ich habe sowohl verschiedene Kabel, als auch verschiedene Netzteile und Rechner ausprobiert. Die Firmware auf dem Calonox View ist 5.0. Ich habe bisher keine Möglichkeit gefunden, wie man die Firmware aktualisieren kann, noch habe ich bei Leica eine neuere Firmware gefunden - was nachvollziehbar ist, da das Gerät ja neu auf dem Markt ist. Hat jemand bzgl. der USB-C Schnittstelle ähnliche Erfahrungen gemacht? Weiss jemand wie man die Firmware aktualisieren kann? Ansonsten aber eine super Wärmebildkamera. Die Qualität ist wirklich Leica typisch super.

The manual focus' Magnification setting (x3 x6) does not specifically appear in the main menu. Whereas it can be optioned indirectly by defining Magnification in the Fn or the thumbwheel programmable areas. Shortage of firmware memory or missed out accidently? [ whilst in the actual manual focus screen ] Easiest method is by clicking the virtual joystick centre button to toggle through x3 & x6 (EVF or LCD). Quite why the top right icon stuff shows or declares [SET] seems pointless. The virtual joystick arrow buttons also directly steer the particular view being magnified (EVF or LCD). Neat though necessarily quite slow. -
Hi, I have recently bought an SL2-S and at beginning I'll mainly use with manual focus (M) Lenses. However, I really like the 90-280mm tele and I might buy second hand A couple of questions about autofocus: in all honesty, how good is the SL2-s autofocus when compared to say a Nikon Z6 (the camera I own)? same question as above for most advanced autofocus features, auto-focus tracking, face recognition etc. If am not mistaken, a massive firmware update for the SL2-s with significant improvements for the autofocus system was announced. Has it been released? In the 2.0 I have not seen much about the autofocus Many thanks in advance for your answers. Cheers.

For unknown reason(s) an oddity is happening with indicated exposure times seen in viewfinder. After making an exposure, for the next two exposures there is no variation in indicated exposure time when panning about with camera. After the third exposure, the indication again varies properly as you pan about different scenes. Then repeats. As if there were an unwanted exposure lock mode in effect for 2nd and 3rd shot of a 3 shot sequence.. Cannot find any obvious settings error likely to be the cause. The bracketing is set to 0. Tried to reload latest firmware but it "completes" in about two seconds so never happened. Does Leica determine the actual present checksum of the loaded firmware and decide that a reload is not necessary?? What am I missing here? Thanks.

I wonder if anyone else if experiencing the SL2 freezing, no response, even if I switch off the OLED display and LCD panel still show information. This only seems to have happened after I updated to the latest firmware V2.0. The only action is to remove the battery and then start again. This has happened 2-3 times in the last week or so. So not immediately after the update, which is slightly more concerning.

It seems to be very nice feature. Leica FOTOS reports availability of new firmware and allows to deploy it via direct WiFi to the camera. Has anyone tried this? Is it secure?

Hi, I'm finally ready to make the switch to Leica digital after the release of the M11, but there is one thing that is holding me back: I have 3 original Leica lenses, none of which are encoded. Encoding lenses by yourself requires some tinkering which I'm not sure I want to do, b/c I don't want to break my precious lenses, also I read that people have mixed success rates. Sending my lenses to Leica is expensive and takes months (!!!) to finish, according to online reports. So what do I do if I cannot encode the lenses right now? I cannot find the manual for the M11 online, but according to the M10 manual, you have to go into some deeply nested menu and then get presented with a list of a gazillion of lenses and it's up to you to find the right one. This is not ideal. I only have a handful of lenses, and I suspect this applies to about 90% of Leica photographers. Why can't I just select the unencoded lenses I own (call it "add to favorites", if you will), and each time I attach an unencoded lens, I get presented with a prompt of the ones I have, and I pick the right one out of 3. Quick and easy. This would be good enough to spare me having to wait for months for my encoding to be done at Leica. I'd buy a new M11 full price to make Leica happy, and this would take the pressure out of their customer service, which seems a bit overloaded these days, to make other customers happy. It's a win-win-win. So, does the M11 have a feature like this? If not, is there a way to pitch this feature to Leica firmware developers? Having this would make me very happy, and I'd buy an M11 in an instant. Regards

I posted this in firmware update thread without reply. I think it is better to start a new thread for this as I feel this is one of more serious bugs for me personally. If I want to shoot multiple frames with locked exposure in aperture priority mode, in the past, I just need half press shutter and keep it pressed and shooting. Because there is no option to enable or disable half press shutter lock exposure for Leica M. (Many other camera let you select this as option), this is especially important. I will pick two scenarios why this is important. Stitch frame: you want lock the exposure and keep exposure consistent when you do panned shots. For M11, you can only have two shot with exposure locked because after first image, the meter relock the scene right away, but after 2nd image, the meter reevaluate and re-lock again. If you took 5 image stitch, first two will have the same exposure, #3&4 have another, and #5 will be another exposure. (assume light conditions are different for each frame) Assume you take backlight portrait, you might want lock exposure by point camera down to avoid meter for highlight, (you can decide how to meter the image based on scene without using manual mode, it could be trying to overexposure or under exposure but you get my idea) Then you take the images, but you try to get a better expression, or the last one subject eyes were closed, you want keep your shutter half pressed to fire right way with original locked exposure. With M11, you can't. It will evaluate the exposure again with that backlight condition. Can you guys check if this is my camera issue or M11 issue? I tried E shutter, mechanical shutter, LV/EVF on, LV/EVF off, none of them make any difference. Any help will be welcome. -

Hate to say the SL2 video capabilities are seriously flawed at 4K recording and C4K. See the picture below. The main issues I ran into during a full day of video use (With the 50 APO SL and 35/1.2 Art): 1. 4K recording can only occur for 5 minutes or less on a full battery before error message “battery level too low for 4K recording”. (Changed batteries and encountered same issue so it’s not the battery) 2. C4K recording restricts AF usage, limited to only manual focus with the Sigma 35/1.2. 3. All AF capabilities during recording are very slow to focus, unable to switch faces during face/body detection (in the rare case it captures a face), the AF box may at times capture 2-3 bodies and choose to “average” the focus distance. 4. No compressed 4K recording at 50mbps or less. 5. Video Focus peaking’s highlighted/colored areas do not match still focus peaking highlighted areas. 6. No way to magnify the video during capture to check focus. Unfortunately the error message for battery doesn’t show up until 30 seconds after you hit record video. So it ruined a nice Xmas morning moment with the family, when I set up the tripod, hit record, then joined the wife/baby. 5 minutes later, I check the camera and only 30 seconds or less were recorded and the moment gone. Last year my A7r3 recorded 4K full width of sensor till the battery went to 0%. AF easily moved from eye to eye of subjects, focus peaking was accurate and easily seen, and it held tons of video in a UHS-1 SD Card. For a camera that touts it video recording, my iPhone did better (actually much better), and then I had to grab my xpro3 for the rest of the day. how did Leica release a camera with such terrible firmware?? ASIDE from video, just off the top of my head, I recall: terrible accuracy and reliability issues with AF-c tracking, complete lack of eye-AF all together, blurry EVF view in magnified mode for AF-s and manual focus, no AF-s abilities at all while in magnified live view, terrible reliability with tethering (can’t tether to an iPad with two SD cards in the camera due to a firmware bug), nonlinear focusing in manual focus on the Summicron SL lenses. That’s all I encountered, im sure there’s more to report. I haven’t encountered a small percentage of such obvious firmware issues with the xpro3, a7r3, A7r4, Nikon z7, or gfx50r.

Apologies if this topic is already in the system by me, but for some reason I could not find what I had posted. Anyway the issue I seem to be having since updating the firmware to v2.0 is that I have had a couple of crashes, or my camera locking up. The on/off button does nothing, the OLED display and LCD are still on. The only remedy to reset is to remove the battery. So far its happened 3 times. Anybody else experiencing this?

Just installed the new Q2 firmware. Writing to the SD card is significantly improved. The buffer hasn't improved, of course, so I still get only 9 fast DNG+JPEG photos before the camera stops shooting, but instead of ~20 sec to finish writing, now it's <10 seconds. The card is a Sandisk Extreme Pro 300 mb/sec 64 GB. I had never saved my settings as a User Profile, so I lost them. (Hint, when the camera asks if you would like to save your user settings before doing the firmware upgrade, it's NOT going to tell you that you don't have any. ) Now I get to spend the next 30 minutes trying to recreate my settings. Sigh.
