digitalfx Posted January 21, 2017 Share #1 Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Post your FW Requests or report Bugs here. (I'll keep Post #1 updated with all the requests) Current Version: 1.3.4.0 List updated: 2/22/17 [bUG FIXES] -Auto review-hold issue When "HOLD" is selected in Auto Review the image remains until you touch the shutter a second time. On the M240 and M9, this functioned correctly and the image remained only while "holding" the shutter release down. The implementation on the M requires a 2nd step. Is there a reason for this change? Is this a bug or by design? Regardless it needs to be fixed. -SDXC Card Compatibility issue Users are reporting several cards are not functioning (posts #44), Discussion: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/268663-sd-card-compatibility-issue/?p=3196352 -Auto brightness issues The auto brightness for the frame lines is erratic...jumping rapidly from bright to dim in mixed lighting. This also occurs occasionally with LCD brightness. -Continuous mode + EVF Fixed with firmware update v1.7.4.0 Discussion: http://www.l-camera-...e/#entry3212371 -Date/time issue Some users are reporting that date/time does not stick and images have the wrong data. -Profiles and Leica R-M Adapter When the Leica R-M adapter is installed, Profiles will no longer load. http://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/269514-bug-with-r-lenses-cant-load-a-profile/ -Image Import- Image orientation errors FW 1.3.4.0 Discussion: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/269582-incorrectly-rotated-m10-photos-following-lightroom-cc-import/ [FEATURE REQUESTS] Bring back the Aperture info into EXIF Addition of a Electronic/Silent shutter Electronic level during live view.

Advertisement Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Hi digitalfx, Take a look here M10- FW Requests/Bug Reports. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Guest Posted January 21, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 21, 2017 Is Focus Assist restricted to LV monitor or do you see those reflected in the viewfinder? I really love the fact that the USB cable is gone and it has no video, then you have at one's fingertips ISO, F-stop, and shutter speed. M10 is genius at work.

Guest Posted January 21, 2017 Share #4 Posted January 21, 2017 I actually use this on my SL and I don't find it distracts me from greating great pictures. In some instances I can agree that it be distracting, in others I find it a boon. Of course I wear glasses so my eyes are not the best, but I am glad to see an M with Focus Assist.

scott kirkpatrick Posted January 21, 2017 Share #5 Posted January 21, 2017 The M10 appears to generate its raw file .DNG output in the same (newer) format DNG1.4 that the SL uses. This suggests that we could now get the best of both worlds. The M10 carries forward the file labelling options that the M240 has offered -- I'd like to see that offered on the SL. The SL has a broken system, creating a new folder and a gap in the labelling every 999 shots, and less ability to give files from different cameras unique names. The SL's firmware team has incorporated corrections for distortion and lateral chromatic aberration for many R and M lenses, but they do not appear to be present in the M10's firmware. Why not use them? Adobe LightRoom does appear to apply a correction (per Sean Reid), but that doesn't help those who use other software to develop their raw files. These corrections give straighter lines and sharper edges for wide angle lenses. scott 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I wear glasses so my eyes are not the best, but I am glad to see an M with Focus Assist. are you referring to the focus peaking? If so, Im not suggesting this be eliminated...after all it can be turned off. The implementation in the M is drastically different from the SL or any previous Leica. Unless my camera has an issue (which I doubt), the M focus peaking is adding too many highlights on the image and many appear random. I need to test it further.

I really love the fact that the USB cable is gone and it has no video, then you have at one's fingertips ISO, F-stop, and shutter speed. M10 is genius at work. I'm lost. What USB was on the M240? There is a databus behind the baseplate, but that could not get in your way as it was hidden. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwesi Posted January 22, 2017 Share #12 Posted January 22, 2017 What would be the advantage of uncompressed DNG ? My M240 allows me to choose. Its not about which is better. Its really just about having a personal preference needlessly removed. The M purports to be a tool for purists. I am a purist. Purists appreciate the ability to make decisions for themselves as to what type of file to capture and store. I hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purists appreciate the ability to make decisions for themselves as to what type of file to capture and store. I hope that helps. But if the choice is meaningless, what is the point? From my tests, there is virtually no difference in lossless compressed DNG and uncompressed. I fought for uncompressed myself until I analyzed the differences...I stopped using uncompressed long ago. A complete waste of space and slows the camera down. Edited January 22, 2017 by digitalfx Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmars Posted January 22, 2017 Share #17 Posted January 22, 2017 The same endless Discussion since the M9 days. Nobody has never shown a compressed picture suffering from compression. mjh has written an article about the compression. No disadvantiges possible.

chris_tribble Posted January 22, 2017 Share #18 Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) For those who don't read French the following comment by Stefan Daniel might be interesting: "Mr. Daniel goes on to say: '...Regarding the electronic shutter, it is not a patent issue, since it is a technology we have mastered over the SL. If there is none, it is just because of a lack of time, we absolutely wanted to launch the M10 early 2017. But it is not excluded that a future firmware update will add the electronic shutter if we feel a strong demand.' (see http://www.lesnumeriques.com/appareil-photo-numerique/leica-m10-p37381/leica-m10-culte-tradition-less-is-more-n59697.html) It looks as if there's the possibility of a silent shutter - and it's just a firmware issue! Time to make some serious requests as I for one would value this enhancement of the M10/... Edited January 22, 2017 by chris_tribble 14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjh Posted January 22, 2017 Share #19 Posted January 22, 2017 My M240 allows me to choose. Its not about which is better. Giving a choice even when just one of the two options makes sense only gives rise to pointless debates as to which option is best: “If ‘compressed’ is clearly the best option, then why does Leica offer a choice?” The only way to put this to rest is to offer no choice. 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
