Advertisement Posted January 13, 2022 Posted January 13, 2022 Hi sebben, Take a look here Leica M11 Review by Jono Slack. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
jmahto Posted January 13, 2022 Share #142 Posted January 13, 2022 Great review Jono. I am still using M240 and so far haven't seen any reason to upgrade but now I am tempted. I can carry two small 28mm and 90mm lenses on my backpacking trip with M11 and cover everything! 🙂 Rest is bonus. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, all good photography is based on anticipation, being ready, not on reaction. (sorry about the preaching tone) lol, Photography is about seeing and reacting to what to see... and you have to do this fast sometimes. Even on standby it takes forever to wake 2+ sec ....Thanks for the silly lecture... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even on standby it takes forever to wake 2+ sec ....Thanks for the silly lecture... You are right, putting it on standby does not help. You need to follow Jono's advice, and that is what I am doing: if you switch the power saving mode off completely, then the camera is always ready, and the battery lasts a day - even with the EVF on. I wish there was a Camera Standby setting of 30 minutes or 1 hour, just in case I forget to turn the camera off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or in a paid photo shoot just keep the camera awake by turning off the sleep and it’s always responsive . The Battery capacity is huge so keep it on My M11 takes 5 seconds from turning on to the first shot. Firmware 1.2. Access to menu and image review is much quicker. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmahto Posted January 14, 2022 Share #146 Posted January 14, 2022 I zoomed into the beautiful pictures on Jono's review page and seeing details that won't be visible in A2,A3 size prints that I do! I may not need extra storage if I keep only 2 images a month as Jono does but I certainly need to upgrade my house for bigger wall size! 😀 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tailwagger Posted January 14, 2022 Share #147 Posted January 14, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Arg... Does anyone know whether or not the e-level is present? Given PC seems to be absent from the firmware and the spec does not seem to mention it AFAICT, I'm a bit concerned. Feature I use all the time.

Shades of the M10... I haven't even laid my mitts on the the thing yet and already I'm a M11-P candidate. Sigh... I hope we didn't loose the hardware for this and its just a future firmware upgrade. I'd be extremely disappointed if this vaporized. Edited January 14, 2022 by Tailwagger Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Writing on to SD card. 128gig Sandisk extreme pro Thank you for the suggestion, that fixed it. I was using 128GB Sony Tough card. Switching to Delkin 128GB or Sandisk 32BG fixed it. - Srdjan Correction: it did not help. Edited January 14, 2022 by SrMi 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumb question, but if you pull the card all together and just use the internal mem, is start up even faster? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alistairm Posted January 14, 2022 Share #157 Posted January 14, 2022 Very interesting re: CF card so drastically changing start up times. I’m picking up my M11 tomorrow and, as I’m all Sony Toughs at the moment I should probably grab a Sandisk! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be issue with my camera and not with the SD card brand, size or type (UHS I vs UHS II). When I though it fixed it, suddenly it started getting worse again. Wait for more reports. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmpf. Hmm... are the cards UHS-II, a mix or... formatted in the M11... very odd. Mine shipped this evening, should have it tomorrow. I'll look for this.
