marcg Posted February 21, 2017 Share #1 Posted February 21, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) How can you tell if your Monochrom has been fitted with a first-generation or second-generation sensor?Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Hi marcg, Take a look here M1 - 1st generation/2nd generation sensor. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
geotrupede Posted February 21, 2017 Share #2 Posted February 21, 2017 there is no way unless Leica states it. the fw is the same for both G Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

coup de foudre Posted February 22, 2017 Share #4 Posted February 22, 2017 I thought I heard that Leica installs new software with the sensors? Functionally the same, but different numbers so you can tell... (I know none of this firsthand as I am only now finally sending my M9 and Monochrom to get their sensors replaced.)

geotrupede Posted February 25, 2017 Share #5 Posted February 25, 2017 they did for the M9, but for the MM the new FW is the same for both, so no way to tell. G. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budfox Posted February 26, 2017 Share #6 Posted February 26, 2017 Just put your camera in a steam room for 3 months and see if it corrodes. If not - definitely got a new sensor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.noctilux Posted March 7, 2017 Share #7 Posted March 7, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Some discussion here: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/268773-sensor-replaced-which-firmware/ mine came with firmware 1.016 I don't know what's the sensor generation, but that's not important for me, Leica do know and manage their best for that .
