thighslapper Posted October 14, 2013 Share #83 Posted October 14, 2013 I have a weird issue with new firmware. When formating a SD card inside the M, the creation date is January 1, 1970 but the DCIM folder is December 30, 2047. I checked the date and time of my M and the settings are correct. Anyone with the same issue? .... yes Leica were told about this by me during the Beta testing phase ...... presumably it will be fixed eventually, but as it has no real practical consequences it is low on their list of priorities ....

01af Posted October 14, 2013 Share #84 Posted October 14, 2013 I have a weird issue with new firmware. When formating a SD card inside the M, the creation date is January 1, 1970 but the DCIM folder is December 30, 2047. My DCIM folder was created on Jan 1st, 1601, at 2.00 AM. I'd say that weird but no issue. I guess there is simply no creation date generated, so the date displayed is just a random pattern of bits, interpreted as a date ... which has no actual meaning. The 100LEICA folder has the same creation date—so maybe the bits filling up the creation date field are not really random but maybe just a string of zeroes—but the creation dates of all the image files are correct. So it's a non-issue. It has never occurred to me to check the folder creation dates on the memory card before, so I have no idea if this behaviour is new ... I guess the previous firmware was no different in this respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verteidiger Posted October 14, 2013 Share #85 Posted October 14, 2013 Where is 1.1.0.2 still available? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedaes Posted October 14, 2013 Share #86 Posted October 14, 2013 Where is 1.1.0.2 still available? In cameras that have not been upgraded? I don't think you can go back after upgrading but why on earth would you want to. Consensus is new FW is a BIG improvement so why would anyone not go with it?

I have not yet installed the new software and would feel more secure if I had a backup even if I might not need one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be available on the Leica pages but isn't anymore. Anyway, having it as a back-up won't help, because the camera refuses to do the update when the firmware to install isn't newer than the firmware installed. After you've installed the new firmware, you cannot go back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidigital Posted October 15, 2013 Share #95 Posted October 15, 2013 Thank you Leica Engineering for listening to your customers and addressing the white balance, color and skin tone issues that we pointed out. Well done!!!! The Leica team really did a great job in listening and working on an update. In many respects, it was easier convincing them than the group of LUF doubters that appeared to defend why the AWB and color weren't an issue when the topic was brought up in the form of a thread.

In many respects, it was easier convincing them than the group of LUF doubters that appeared to defend why the AWB and color weren't an issue when the topic was brought up in the form of a thread. I don't think that it was so much that there was a group defending the AWB, it was more that there existed a few that saw through the AWB problem and made dual-luminance profiles or were proficient enough with PP and realized that the color from the CMOS sensor wasn't the problem. I think Leica may have listened to them, and not those that thought the CMOS color was the the inherent problem, and changed the AWB and left the basic CMOS color alone. The Leica team clearly addressed the AWB and did a great job. Thanks Leica. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest borge Posted October 15, 2013 Share #98 Posted October 15, 2013 It takes its time to have the firmware shipped over the ocean. Either that, or it has to bypass the NSA cache and security checks before it can arrive at it's final destination. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmclalla Posted October 15, 2013 Share #99 Posted October 15, 2013 Hi everybody, I can't properly download the latest firmware; in other words, I download it but then, when trying to open it, it appears a message (I use a mac powerbook) saying that there is no known application to open it. I'm so unable to save it on the sd card and update the firmware. Can you help me? Thanks in advance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted October 15, 2013 Share #100 Posted October 15, 2013 You just need to copy this file on a formatted SD card. It is not supposed to be open by any application. http://tinyurl.com/phs4zpf Instructions: http://tinyurl.com/osbhz5t Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
