Is it just me or has the leica website crashed?

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

That's expected when all 100 Leica users worldwide hit the site at the same time to get the firmware.

Fortunatelly they don't release new firmware very often so it's not a big deal.

Looks like they have fixed wrong exposure compensation issue.

 

We’ll see if they’ve fixed the temperature issue as well

Lot of finger wagging going in this thread. You guys don't get out much?  The internet is full of popular camera rumor sites visited regularly by tens of thousands of eager consumers just waiting for a glimpse of what might be coming. Personally, I 'd like to thank double_0_se7en for dropping this one on us...which BTW obviously turned out to be spot on. Very exciting and looks like some really valuable goodies in this update.

I installed the new M10 firmware this AM (US). One of the features of the new FW is a different method of delete. As of 5 minutes ago the only way I can delete a single image is to use delete multi. Even several rounds of delete single won't delete the chosen image. In other words that feature doesn't work on my M10.

I just tested it and it seems to work on mine. AFTER you press play PLAY, then MENU button, scroll to "delete single", then press the CENTER Pad BUTTON, you will see the TRASH icon pop up, then press the CENTER Pad Button again.  Single delete is working on mine!

Yes: just tried 'new' feature and it's exact;y as you describe it – dustbin and press centre button.

What was the exposure compensation issue?

[Overgaard]

It's great with Low Continuous Speed.

Camera showed any EC setting other than zero as "-3.00" in the picture info when picture was reviewed in-camera. (EXIF as shown on computer later was correct. Actual EC used was correct)

Any signs better high ISO performance? With less "vertical and horizontal stripes may become visible, especially in large, uniformly bright areas. . .” as Leica put it.

With hindsight, I suspect his dealer friend had a copy of the Press Release that was embargoed until 3pm CET today, and didn't know what embargo meant so leaked it.

Ahh - that's good - I have on occasion miss-hit the center set/OK button with my thumb, and in the previous FW, had the camera move "left" or "right" one image and delete at the same time (the wrong picture, or two at once!) The new separate trash-can frame "interrupts" that possible sequence - one can no longer both scroll through pictures AND fire the delete trigger simultaneously by pressing two buttons at once.

 

(I have fat thumbs - I admit it!)

Probably a silly question but why & when would you choose "low continuous" speed over high?

[adan]

- For some of us, continuous is good, but continuous at 5 fps is overkill in some situations. The film M motors have generally had only 1.5 to 3 fps, depending on era.

 

- The high-speed continuous setting makes it tricky to just take one picture, if one wants to intersperse single frames with continuous sequences - you have to have a very quick trigger finger to snap just one and remove pressure before the camera takes a second (or more) exposure. Having the slower option allows switching from sequences to singles and back, without a trip into the menu to swap mode from C to S.

What are the improvements? Certainly interested how they can make this little beast any better than it already is.

 

I get sucked into buying the P versions every time, dang it.
