Set the shutter speed to B and then front button. That should open the secret page on the screen for you to choose shutter speeds unto 120s.

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

That is nice !

 

May I add that it depend on the ISO setting also:

- 100 to 400 ISO max 125s

- 800 ISO only to 60s

-1600 ISO max 32s that would be max ISO for the OP (30s asking)

...

at 6400 ISO only 8s max

Waw, may thanks.  Are there any other such secret pages you are aware of?  Or anybody else?  I couldn't find any in the manual.

Hello,

 

Charles, this function is in M10's manual : Leica M10 GEBRUIKSAANWIJZING.

I have a paper manual for M10 that came with the camera it's maybe the same as yours.

French and NL in same book: you may read that in page 174.

In FR, it's page 62 (I just compare as I don't read/write/speak NL).

 

But not (in the manual) what I added in limitations with ISO setting.

I have shot plenty long exposures at base iso for 125 second duration. Light painted my GT3. =)

Yes, thanks, you are right, I missed that (or rather, I didn't yet read the complete manual)
