The list of automatically detectable Leica-M lenses was extended including the 50/1.2 (11820) but not the new 50/1.2 asph (11686, 11702) apparently.

What’s new on the new firmware?

[johntobias]

does it get the perspective control feature of the new M10 firmware ????

 

[andybarton]

I doubt it

[andybarton]

It's only for M10P, M10R and M10 Monochrom bodies

I have no idea what that thing can be but you're surely right.

The M240 2.1.0 firmware works just fine, but does not include perspective control.

It's difficult to see what the differences are apart from, as LCT says, the addition of a new lens or two in the coding.

As Al Brown announced, there is new firmware for the M246 Monochrom and the M262, both version 1.1.0.0. Not evident what is changed, but they do not delete User Profiles.

None here. Cannot tell the difference.

I’ve had one issue using the multifunction grip. The gps seems quirky after the firmware update. I’ve had to switch on and off a couple times to get it to register and never had that problem before.

I also use GPS sometimes. What happened exactly? Does the failures are repeatable or could it also be just some unfortunate circumstances (e.g. blocked satellites through buildings or trees...)?

Would be great to know, what was changed in this firmware. In the last updates they do nothing about the GPS feature.

No information about error fixing, just profiles for a lens I will never have. I'll skip this firmware version.

[fotomas]

Thanks. Do you have a source with informations about it? I couldn't find any information at all. On the Leica page there was only the download-link.

If they only add profiles then there should be no issue with the GPS (or at least not more issues as there was beforeM;-).
