Exposure bracketing question/issue

Please excuse me if this has already been brought up before. I did a forum search but couldn't find my answer.

 

I set my exposure bracketing parameters on the Leica M and save it as a user profile. However, when I turn the camera off and on again, the bracketing parameters get reset and bracketing is turned off. Have any of you faced this issue, and is there a solution? I'm running firmware 2.0.0.11. Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

This was a bug pointed out a long while ago.

 

I thought it was fixed with the current firmware....... and when I tried it during beta testing before the firmware release it seemed to be ok.....

 

I will have to check again......... :o

 

Thank you for rechecking it. The problem persists, at least for me. I'm using the latest firmware.

Just checking one last time if anyone else is having this problem. Thank you.

Yes .... Exp Bracketing settings are not saved under any circumstances when the camera is powered down.

 

Exactly as with the previous firmware...... and not fixed with this one..... despite the fact I and Rick pointed it out a long while ago.

 

In beta testing I remember checking this with an intermediary firmware version and it worked ok..... but not now in 2.0.0.11

 

There is a rather unsatisfactory work-around ..... use the 'save profiles to card' in the manage profiles bit of the profiles menu.

 

I have an HDR profile and at least this reloads it (and the other profiles) as it was before.... instead of going into menu and re-setting all the parameters.

 

Remember that re-formatting the card deletes this data as well ....

 

 

I have emailed Leica reminding them it still doesn't work......:(

TS - I just tried it on the beta firmware ver. 2.0.0.11 and it doesn't work. I saved the bracket mode to a user profile. When I just turned the camera off the setting was lost.

 

I just don't understand why simple bug fixes like this and the ISO bug etc. are not released by Leica as they fix them. It isn't like it takes them more than a few minutes to change the offending line(s) of code. I would think that it would buy them so much goodwill... and I could sure use the little extra bit of functionality.

 

I think they must have promoted the lug-guy to director of firmware.:eek:
