Are somewhere the RAWs available to check pictures in COP? Jochen Not for these, because either of them can be made to look really bad if the shadows are pushed hard enough.  An ISO 3200 SL2 file as underexposed as that one can only take lifting of Shadows to +30 in LR.  The Z7 ISO 3200 file has a bit more adjustment latitude but not to the max.

It's not so much I'm looking for the camera to do the work for me, as I am using both AF and Manual lenses. The issue for me is that the majority of my photos do not seem to be in focus regardless of how much I try. I have very few that come out ok, but loads more where the focus is off. I'm worried that I may have a faulty unit.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deekay Posted January 4, 2020 Share #43 Â Posted January 4, 2020 Siran, that does sound odd - and frustrating. Same issue with all lenses? If some are coming out ok, I suppose that means it's not a camera issue? Any common denominators with those that are not sharp? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really strange if AF most of the times is wrong , could be instead  blurred images with Ibis off ? try some static subject, if you get green box together with sound AF must ok. could you post some of them ?  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siran Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share #48  Posted January 10, 2020 After some more testing I’m convinced that there is something not right with the focusing of the camera. I’m not sure if there is a correlation or not, but I recently saw on Facebook that some others were having a problem with their joystick, which can be identified by squeaking sound when you use it. My joystick also does this and I’m wondering if the issue is messing with my focus point. i can’t seem to share the URL, but if you go to the Leica SL2 public group on Facebook you will see some videos showing the issue including one of mine. So I’m returning my camera and have asked for a replacement. God knows how long it will be until I get one back though as I’m told there is still a long waiting list. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luca Posted January 10, 2020 Share #50 Â Posted January 10, 2020 Hey sorry to hear that. Considering it is a replacement I think you will have priority. Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siran Posted January 16, 2020 Author Share #51  Posted January 16, 2020 Heard back from Park Cameras and they have noted the issue with the joystick. They have requested a replacement but I have no idea when I will get it. I forgot to attach some of the photos as requested earlier. For the first photo (ending 51.jpg), the spot focus point was on cloest to the camera eye - but as you can see the photo is not in focus. For the second photo (ending 63.jpg), the spot focus point on was the top of the nose, between the eyes. I stupidly deleted the photos taken with the 24-90mm AF lens when I thought they were unusable, but if i find some on my capture one library i'll upload them too to show it's not just a manual focus issue.
