What really speeds the camera up: Take out the SD-card. Endless and fast shooting with 36 MP, nearly the same with 60 MP. So the SD-card  (or writing on it) seems to be the limiting factor. I have a SanDisk Extrem Pro SDXC V90 II 300 MB/s. I understood this is the fastest one.

The problem arises when shooting fast in single shot mode. 

This worked perfect for me on the M10P and M10R.

On the M11 I miss every second shot (with or without SD-card).

It was already reported, but in essence

Slow single shot mode with auto review turned off (I always have it turned off)

Thank you Jono. I recently had a couple of freezes in the camera as well, I think it was when I had Auto Review > Shutter button, but I am not sure this is the reason. Do you think it is worth reporting to Leica as well? Did you have any random camera freezes? Thanks

I think it's only with auto-review turned OFF - putting it on shutter button works fast and well if you don't want an auto review.

Hi There Daedalus

There are a few points where the camera can freeze - I know that Leica are working on this.

All the best

Doesn't seem to make a difference if I use an SD card or use internal storage, S/M/L sizes.

Strangely, I can sometimes double tap and the camera works fine, press the shutter again and it misses the shot, double tap and the camera works fine, press the shutter again and it misses the shot!

@SrMi @jonoslack Have you noticed that when Auto Review is set to Shutter Button Pressed, an image still appears on screen occasionally, even though you're not "pressing" the shutter button and LV is switched OFF?

I have not seen that. Image review appears only if I keep the shutter button pressed.

I use Auto Review>>Shutter Button exclusively...Ive been using this option since it was first introduced in either the M9 or M240, I dont recall.

The only time an image appears is when you hold the shutter button after the exposure. My guess is your just holding it too long.

What I love about this option is that you never see an image review, unless you hold the shutter...unlike all the other options which either force a review or no option for a review. So this is the best of both options combined + you can hold the review as long as you like or simple skip review. I rarely use it, but when I need to review it doesnt require changing a setting or going into full review mode.

Didn't get fixed in v1.3.0 ☹️

Fingers crossed for the next update!

Unfortunately, it was not fixed. The temporary solution (Auto Review>Shutter), is non-intrusive. However, the bug may confuse owners who are not aware of the "fix".

Agreed. Hopefully people will find this forum post.

I can't train my finger not to linger on the shutter button, so I often get the image flash up for a millisecond when using the RF. It's very distracting.

I know... still this is the way to deal with that problem... at least you know that the camera has safely stored the photo on the SD card.
I tend to de-press the shutter button after each shot so the preview don't shows up in 95% of shoots. I seldom use continues mode in any camera
that I used because I newer felt the need to. I loved my SL cameras because their responsiveness in turning on, shutter delay and other things.
I wish if the M11 had the same capabilities. At least faster power up and perhaps the thing with a shutter...

Well that's a shame. It's such a well known issue I would have thought Leica might fix it. It's going to catch out many M11 users and I wouldn't have thought Leica would want the negative feedback.

The new features are nice but IMHO bug fixes like this are more important and should be given priority.

I reported the issue to Leica again, just to get an update and they said:

This is on the list to be fixed via a firmware update. I will not know if it will be included in an update until the update is published.

so unless Leica has change the prospective on updates for bug fixes we may be waiting 9 months for a new update!

I don't know what is involved in been a firmware programmer, but I feel the updates are always slow because they set delivery dates and pack it all in one..

As a message from the manufacturer, this sheds a startling light on internal communications within Leica! 😁
