Advertisement Posted December 3, 2017 Posted December 3, 2017 Hi dugby, Take a look here M 240 firmware 2.0.5.0. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
david strachan Posted December 3, 2017 Share #2 Posted December 3, 2017 Thanks dugby. Not really relevant to me, so I'll stick to my existing firmware. all best... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exodies Posted December 3, 2017 Share #4 Posted December 3, 2017 Apple restriction - can’t save this to an SD card plugged into an iPad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jto555 Posted December 3, 2017 Share #5 Posted December 3, 2017 Apple restriction - can’t save this to an SD card plugged into an iPad. I download it to my Mac and was able to save it to an SD card. A silly question but could you have locked the card? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Ricoh Posted December 3, 2017 Share #6 Posted December 3, 2017 Good to see the M240 still being supported, but currently my need don't need the new tweaks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted December 3, 2017 Share #7 Posted December 3, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) I think I'll update. It'll be the closest I get to owning a Noctilux 75. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exodies Posted December 4, 2017 Share #8 Posted December 4, 2017 I download it to my Mac and was able to save it to an SD card. A silly question but could you have locked the card? I’m on the road so working on a tablet, not a Mac - I was hoping that the new iPad app “Files” - might allow downloads to be saved to SD card but no luck.

Exodies Posted December 4, 2017 Share #9 Posted December 4, 2017 Thanks dugby. Not really relevant to me, so I'll stick to my existing firmware. all best... I think that software suppliers don’t mention all bugs they have fixed in new releases. I suggest you might usefully install this one in a few weeks if no one reports problems. Don’t forget to save your user profiles to SD card before doing so. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedirektor Posted December 4, 2017 Share #10 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Is this also for the 262 ? Just checked. Yes it is. Apologies for NOOB question. Edited December 4, 2017 by thedirektor Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcg Posted December 4, 2017 Share #11 Posted December 4, 2017 Good to see the M240 still being supported, but currently my need don't need the new tweaks. Cynical me: Don't imagine that they're supporting the M240. They're supporting their new Thambar and Noctilux lenses. Let's not kid ourselves. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not kid ourselves. There is a bug fix too -probably more than one. The camera is still in production, which means that it is fully supported in firmware. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

david strachan Posted December 4, 2017 Share #15 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Would Forum members please write here, any firmware fixes they note in their update, please. I'm loath to update just for the sake of it, but if there is a tangible benefit, i will upgrade my M-P. Many thanks. ...

jmahto Posted December 5, 2017 Share #16 Posted December 5, 2017 Is it possible to downgrade firmware if you notice an issue? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsolomon Posted December 5, 2017 Share #17 Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) Is it possible to downgrade firmware if you notice an issue? Yes, just load the old. Technically speaking the firmware is not an 'upgrade' but a replacement. This allows for loading any version that's compatible with the camera (hardware). The process of loading the new firmware is quiet simple Edited December 5, 2017 by rsolomon Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lct Posted December 5, 2017 Share #18 Posted December 5, 2017 Did the update with no ill effects so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulus Posted December 5, 2017 Share #19 Posted December 5, 2017 There is a bug fix too -probably more than one. The camera is still in production, which means that it is fully supported in firmware. I cannot see this in the download ? Just one bug with flash: - Ein Fehler, der zu gelegentlichen Unterbelichtungen bei Blitzbelichtung geführt hat, wurde behoben By the way, did I miss the 2.0.4.0 firmware update? And why is the 2.0.3.0. still on the site and the 2.0.4.0. is not findable? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
