Verteidiger Posted June 20, 2017 Share #124 Posted June 20, 2017 Problem occurred Sunday with mine, brought it to Wetzlar yesterday. They know the issue; the dial somehow unplugs. For repair the camera has to be disassembled. Takes its time - so you cannot wait for it. They have lots to do with the M9's sensor issue (surprise!). By the way: It will not be possible to bring back the level by a firmware update, they told me. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverover Posted June 20, 2017 Share #125 Posted June 20, 2017 (edited) Mine failed the first time I used it. Has since been working fine after visiting Leica NJ. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I am curious if Leica has implemented any production changes to the External ISO knob since there is an obvious issue, and if so, I am curious what serial numbers may be affected or ALL M-10's built to date destined to fail in that respect? If anyone that has experienced this stuck ISO issue can start to list their build dates, perhaps some pattern may emerge.

If anyone that has experienced this stuck ISO issue can start to list their build dates, perhaps some pattern may emerge. My thoughts exactly. Perhaps I'm being overly paranoid, but I used the dial exactly once. Set it to M and until theres more clarity on the issue, it will stay there and I'll alter ISO via the menu. Probably would have done that anyway as I rely on base ISO unless absolutely necessary. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hey You Posted June 20, 2017 Share #127 Posted June 20, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I received mine January 23rd 2017. Serial number 5153001. Box says its date of manufacture was January 9th 2017. It locked up in May 2017. Returned to Leica NJ and now works fine. However I no longer adjust the ISO setting, for fear that the problem may recur. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone that has experienced this stuck ISO issue can start to list their build dates, perhaps some pattern may emerge. They told me that nothing essential has been changed during production but that they are more careful assembling the ISO-dial now and plugging it in. Mine was produced 20th December, 2016. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtwo Posted June 21, 2017 Share #130 Posted June 21, 2017 Man. My camera will arrive tomorrow. This makes me nervous. Especially with my luck. Sorry for all of the people experiencing this issue. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalfx Posted June 23, 2017 Share #131 Posted June 23, 2017 i use my dial every single day...have had the camera since the day it was announced. Not a single issue. Stop being paranoid and use your cameras. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtwo Posted June 23, 2017 Share #132 Posted June 23, 2017 i use my dial every single day...have had the camera since the day it was announced. Not a single issue. Stop being paranoid and use your cameras. My camera arrived yesterday. I'm afraid to use it, so it's still in the box. And it isn't fair that I have one in hand when others ordered before me and have been waiting for months. Mine arrived in just over three weeks. So sad. And they are out to get me. The small animals that I converse with that no one else can see told me as much. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verteidiger Posted June 24, 2017 Share #133 Posted June 24, 2017 i use my dial every single day...have had the camera since the day it was announced. Not a single issue. Stop being paranoid and use your cameras. I'd like to, but the ISO-dial does not work any more. So I cannot use the camera any more. And at Leica's they smiled and confirmed that I am not the only one with exactly this issue. And it is my third M-body, and it is the third one with a serious problem within the first two years after purchase which I have never experienced with any other camera. (And now I am ready to read the answer that I must have used the wrong SD-card, should not have taken the camera into the sun or into the cold or that I probably had not caressed the ISO-dial the way it should have been caressed.) 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozu_shutterbugger Posted June 24, 2017 Share #134 Posted June 24, 2017 My guess would be what was surmised, that the ISO button had physically decoupled, so the external dial was no longer turning the internal mechanism. The symptoms seem to suggest that: camera works, menus work, ISO behaves as if the dial is set to 400. The simplest notion is that the dial actually is set to 400, on the inside. Anyone who has ever done anything like repair a sink faucet or stove burner dial has seen this sort of thing, where the outer handle breaks in some way where it ceases to turn the inner shaft. Rather than be wary of using the menus, I'd be wary of using the dial too much, or doing anything to stress it physically. may be and just a may be the pull action on the dial might have pulled it away from the electronic contact... I go with the decoupled theory which seems lame on part of Leica Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop being paranoid and use your cameras. Good on you and others might not be as lucky Others might try to prevent it from happening, and above all leica didn't make any statement despite some problems arise, and I'm sure it is more than just three reported here earlier Others might not live as near as leica service center that sending to them for service might take longer than you could have imagined Use your camera? Im pretty damn sure my shutter has more mileage than yours, my knob might b used occasionally, but didnt mean i didnt use the camera Being paranoid? Not really, just trying to avoid sending it over which might be troublesome for where i live Instagram @jakontil Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UliWer Posted July 4, 2017 Share #136 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) Mine has stuck - though not completely. Most times at whatever ISO-value I turn the dial, it is stuck on ISO 1600; when I turn the dial very slowly it may get to ISO 800, but I cannot get any other value. Both values cannot be changed by setting another ISO in the menue. Even when the menu clearly says ISO 100 and Max. ISO 250, the results are either ISO 1600 or 800. Reset, change of battery or SD-card didn't help I did not use the dial a lot, most times I used Auto-Iso with a maximum of ISO 1600. I wonder why it stuck on ISO 1600 for the first time since I do not remember having set this value by dial. Perhaps the setting for max ISO caused it. Edit: Turing the dial clockwise fixes it on ISO 1600, counter clockwise I can reach ISO 800 - but no other values. Serial No. is 5183517, the package is dated 2017/02/24. Whilst many earlier reports said that the dial was very tight, mine was quite easy to lift. I wanted to use it for a holiday from tomorrow. So the M9 will be in charge again.

mmradman Posted July 4, 2017 Share #137 Posted July 4, 2017 M8 - Poor filtration M9 - cracked sensors, followed by corrosion M240- strap lugs M10- stuck ISO dial SL601- no reported problems (anything to do with Panasonic?) Maybe making cameras is not Leicas forte? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
