msbel Posted January 14, 2016 Share #7 Posted January 14, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) How would they fix that? I just received mine, and to tell you the truth, the dials and most of the hit seem a bit fragile. Not a beater for sure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Weissman Posted January 15, 2016 Share #8 Posted January 15, 2016 After 1 hour of very frustrating searching, I finally found (and downloaded) the SF40 manual. Here is where it is located: https://us.leica-camera.com/content/download/130175/1631416/version/2/file/Instruction_SF40.pdf The Leica website is truly one of the least helpful sites for any camera manufacturer. The SF40 manual is buried in the information/support/download site under M system. It doesn't appear via a site search or anything else. This is my 4th i40 (Sony, Fuji, M43 versions) and they're all a bit different. The other i40 flashes work well (haven't tried the SF40 yet) but the flash foot is extremely fragile. I've already had to replace one i40 flash foot and an A700 series foot as well. Luckily, Nissin support in the US is fairly fast. (Not sure whether support will come from Leica or Nissin.) So be very careful! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
