Not sure whether this has been reported here: The German Leica site has posted the official camera manual as a PDF file for download (German and English in one file). You can download at Leica Camera AG - Fotografie - LEICA M -- just click on ANLEITUNGEN in the list of links on the right hand side.

 

Now a question for those of you who already have an M: The manual states that the M supports HSS (high speed sync) with an SF-58. Has anybody tried this? How well does it work?

In hss mode you can use SF58 up to 1/4000

Of course the guide number is reduced when in hss, but it works fine to fill in in daylight shooting.

Example: you can fill in a backlit portrait at f2.8 and 1/4000 on a beach.

To fill in, you need fast shutter speeds

It works the same as on M7
