paulsydaus Posted February 5, 2022 Share #1 Posted February 5, 2022 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Only relaying this from a video I saw on Youtube so that the powers that be can get it fixed. Someone reported that if the shutter speed dial is accidentally sitting between two speeds, the camera will default to 5s. A simple firmware update could fix this so that a non-selected shutter speed defaults to the last selected speed.

Kwesi Posted February 6, 2022 Share #3 Posted February 6, 2022 We've always been able to select half stops on the shutter dial. This hasn't changed with my M11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This hasn't changed with my M11 The issue is supposed to appear if you set the shutter speed between two "clicks", e.g., between 1000 and 1500.

Kwesi Posted February 6, 2022 Share #5 Posted February 6, 2022 got it. There seems to be a quite a few first time M owners out there. Bravo to Leica and yet the engineers must be going nuts wondering what sort of torture tests these newbies will come up with next.😀 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsydaus Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share #6 Posted February 6, 2022 (edited) @kwesi I am very far from being a newbie. And I don’t yet own the M11. I am only passing on something I witnessed in the hope it might help. I don’t have time to read every post on this forum. I hope your post made you feel better. But I see it as being pretty immature.

FlashGordonPhotography Posted February 6, 2022 Share #7 Posted February 6, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) I can't reproduce this. My M11 does what you suggest. Uses the last *clicked* shutter speed. This isn't something I think I've ever done accidentally, ever. The shutter speed dial wants to move to a clicked position. I had to set it inbetween clicks quite deliberately to test. Gordon Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulsydaus Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share #8 Posted February 6, 2022 That’s good to know. Sounds like an isolated case. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitalfx Posted February 6, 2022 Share #11 Posted February 6, 2022 all the 1/2 stop clicks work as the should on my camera as well....even sitting between these half speeds there is no issue. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jzemlin Posted May 9, 2022 Share #13 Posted May 9, 2022 I am getting a bug when I return the shutter speed dial to A (Aperture priority) it stays on M (Manual) at 4000. It does not do this from the other direction (low shutter speeds). So I have to go past A in that direction and then reverse to make sure it is on Aperture priority. It is super irritating as the manual states "The shutter speed setting dial has no stop, which means it can be turned in either direction from any position. It will click at each en- graved position and for intermediate values." This is a one day old camera. Return it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except between 1/2000s and 1/3000s where the camera defauts to 6 seconds for me. I can reproduce the bug at will. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
