algrove Posted April 25, 2018 Author Share #41 Posted April 25, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) I really do not see why people are complaining about battery life. If you use the camera how it’s meant to be, as rangefinder, the battery will last at least one day, probably longer. Or at least 600 shutter actions (back screen with sleeping time of two minutes). Some who routinely use the EVF mainly due to using lenses wider than 28mm find battery life shorter than on the M240. I just carry additional batteries and change when and if necessary. This often becomes evident when shooting street images with 24, 21 or 18mm lenses. Sure when not using the EVF the battery lasts most of the day depending on specific settings.

IkarusJohn Posted April 25, 2018 Share #42 Posted April 25, 2018 I never take that many pics in a day, and recharge daily, so it’s hard to say. Plus I don’t chimp much, use only RF, and set the camera to go off after a couple minutes. But I always pack an extra battery just in case, especially in cold weather. No big deal considering the extra film canisters I used to pack. Jeff The voice of reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StS Posted April 28, 2018 Share #43 Posted April 28, 2018 I'm using the M10 since half a year and have the feeling they got it right. Battery life is OK for me*, one of the first things I bought was a spare battery nevertheless. I like the concept to have das Wesentliche , the essential, available on uniquely shaped buttons and levers which can be felt without taking the camera down and which can't be mixed up or pressed by mistake. I almost never use the menu, so have to search for stuff, if I do. Fine for me. Stefan * I take surprisingly few pictures; there are much more photos I don't take compared to those I take, because I know they won't work. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
erl Posted April 28, 2018 Share #44 Posted April 28, 2018 Every artisan, craftsman, tradesman, photographer, et al must choose his/her tools to suit their task. Sometimes research may be necessary to define the suitability of the tool to one's intended use. The M10 performs superbly in this respect, if the user has done due diligence. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not use optical finder accessory which will not drain extra juice? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
algrove Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share #49 Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) For me, I can shoot quicker and more accurately with the EVF than the optical finder. Heck, come to think of it, the optical finder probably costs about the same as the EVF and one extra battery. In addition the EVF adjusts to any lens used versus having to use an optical finder for each wide FL used. Edited June 20, 2018 by algrove Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

budjames Posted December 5, 2018 Share #52 Posted December 5, 2018 I have two M10s. I use the Auto ISO function and occasionally, IOS 10,000, which is the ISO I have set for the "M" setting on the IOS dial. So far, I have not experienced any issues with the IOS dial.

budjames Posted March 24, 2019 Share #54 Posted March 24, 2019 On 4/1/2018 at 10:13 AM, Herr Barnack said: My only concern with the M10 is battery life. I have read that when fully charged, the battery will last 200-300 exposures; that seems awfully low. Can any current M10 users comment on this? Although I take a second battery with me, I have never had to use it on all day long outings.

evikne Posted March 24, 2019 Share #55 Posted March 24, 2019 Same here. Even though I carry a spare battery, it is rarely used. 200–300 well thought through images in a day should be more than sufficient. 😁 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
