1. DNG only mode added

DNG is now available as a separate mode (besides JPG and DNG+JPG).

I'm curious as to how this affects wifi image transfer through the Leica Q app - will it convert to JPG on the fly or allow DNG transfer?

 

If it's like the other cameras I've used that have this feature, it simply will not work if all you have are DNG.  Just like today, you just don't see the DNGs that exist...

12. Three modes available for the thumbwheel (Off / AUTO / Exp. Comp.)

 

What is the AUTO referencing here?

 

 

 

Auto Exposure Compensation I'd assume...

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

I was thrilled to see an updated (22/07/2016) manual available: http://en.leica-camera.com/Service-Support/Support/Downloads?category=124335&subcategory=&type=&language=all

BUT it does not appear to address Firmware 2.0.

 

 

Indeed a bit bizarre to bring out an updated manual, and then not have the newest firmware intregrated (for instance it still mentions only JPG and JPG+DNG as options, etc.)

Wise remark.

Many people have been complaining for the lack of DNG "tether", although I definitely don't (having experienced the ultra-slow transferts one gets via Eye-Fi cards in that config, not to speak of the battery drain after 1/2h backup)

But this is all a joke except the date? You nearly got me... :-)

No, it does use the DNG internal JPEG that is transferred to the Leica Q App.

Not true. You can view and transfer DNGs with the Q app today.

I may not read correctly either the user manual or the forum but still not a way to switch off the noise reduction function? It will only add a countdown?

I'll be darned.  I must be confusing my Fujis of past...  That's good news then!

So today is 26th, let's see..

When did that change?

When did that change?

How do you know it wasn't there from the beginning?

Maybe with Android that might be possible. IOS not! You can view, but not transfer DNGs.

If there is something actually (let's remind that's just rumors we are talking about) I expect the file to appear there:
