smenp3 Posted July 8, 2019 Share #1 Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, I use Leica Q for Landscape for my pleasure. I use foto app for remote. When I select shutter speed case, I can slide the cursor until to 4, 5,... minutes and more but I got in shutter case only 120 sec. And the picture was taken only at this time period. Why it can not be taken to more than 120sec? Why I can not use the remote app on T shutter speed? The T shutter speed can be used only with the camera shutter.

bullmoon Posted July 10, 2019 Share #2 Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) this should help explain what's going on. I agree, Fotos should allow T so we could time our own exposures under the "limit", versus the hard set exposure settings.

It explains the operation very well. We may not like it, but I now see the limitations more clearly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

m9photo Posted July 11, 2019 Share #8 Posted July 11, 2019 I Thought under scene mode you can select timer on Q, you should be able to set up to 1hr? pls correct me if I'm wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never tried it more than 120 sec to avoid the ghe heath in the sensor. Did you try it? Edited July 15, 2019 by smenp3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried it with your suggestion. In scene mode, it would be on Automatic mode. I tried with T shutter speed, the maximum we got in the Q is +/-126 sec. Thank to bullmoon and jaapv. The question to Leica team manufacturer and software engineer why you did not answer us? Can they update the firmware to allow us to shoot more than 126sec. If so, does it damage the sensor? Please Leica! 🙏 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
