ozhuner Posted March 2, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 2, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello I have a newly repaired M-D (Typ 262) and everything works fine, including the ISO dial, except that ISO is set to 6400 on every photo regardless of what the ISO dial is set to. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Is there a setting that might be overriding the ISO dial? Thanks in advance Oz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Hi ozhuner, Take a look here M-D (Typ 262) stuck on ISO 6400. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Exodies Posted March 2, 2018 Share #2 Posted March 2, 2018 Sounds like the repair left the switch disconnected. Send it back. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NigelG Posted March 2, 2018 Share #3 Posted March 2, 2018 Sounds like the repair left the switch disconnected. Send it back. +1 AFAIK there are no “settings” and there’s no “Factory reset” kind of thing. I don’t think any kind of firmware issue could cause this. There was a thread re stuck ISO dials on M10s and it was definitely a connection issue. Was it “repaired” in Wetzlar? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

a.noctilux Posted March 2, 2018 Share #5 Posted March 2, 2018 Here is the first time that I read M-D need a repair. And not 100% functioning after repair . What went wrong ? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozhuner Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted March 2, 2018 May I asked what was the reason for repair? I don’t know. I bought it as certified pre-owned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What went wrong ? I didn’t send it in for repair, I bought it as certified preowned so I don’t know why it was sent in the first place. I’m not sure that anything is defective - it could be user error haha! No I did a bunch of test shots at different ISO dial settings. First of all the exposure metering does not change when you changes the ISO dial and second all the files are encoded as ISO 6400 regardless of the dial setting. Jeeez why couldn’t it be stuck at ISO200. I’d never change it then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozhuner Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share #8 Posted March 2, 2018 Sounds like the repair left the switch disconnected. Send it back. Yeah that’s the most likely explanation. Just wanted to check there wasn’t some setting (through service mode?) that would override the ISO dial. Waiting for Leica tech support to get back to me.

Photon42 Posted March 3, 2018 Share #9 Posted March 3, 2018 Here is the first time that I read M-D need a repair. Well - I think I wrong a while back my first MD had an issue with reading the lens codings. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not. First I thought it was due to some were self coded, but it turned out it did not work with some Leica coded ones either. I got a replacement unit which worked fine since then.
