SL2 Firmware v5.1


Recommended Posts

Advertisement (gone after registration)

Sooo I don't know if i happened to look at this right at the right moment, but it seems, to zero fanfare or even emails or apparently ANYTHING on the internet they've snuck a firmware update for the SL2 up, and if you're one of the many of us rather cross about your very expensive Profoto Connect Pro trigger not working properly... It looks like this might be the answer. 

About to update my camera, but I thought I'd post this to let y'all know as well..

bugger, forgot to save my customisations again

I said “Yes“ when my Leica proposed me... and since then we live happily ever after... ;) :D

Nope but still managed to cock it up

The update won't re-load your customizations automatically, like the SL firmware update did (I think...). After you re-start the beast, go to User Profiles->Manage Profiles->Import Profiles, and that should do it.

Another trouble free update here to my SL2. including importing the profiles again as Chuck Albertson helpfully reminded all here.
The longstanding automatic file number resetting is always a minor irritation for me. Of course the other metadata ameliorates that.
24-90 and APO 35 FWs unchanged

Be sure to double-check the profiles after importing them. The update adjusted the shutter angle on my two video profiles, from 180 degree to 11.2 degrees.

By me is that also the case... I needed to return shutter angle back to the 180 degree after FW update...
No big deal but it can make a problem if you don't notice that at time...
Also the imported LUT are deleted but I think that is normal because they are in the inside memory...
I did't find any other changes in the camera settings but who knows...

I try to update my Leica SL2-s with the new firmware 5.1

The camera update, but after update the turn off screen is not showing a Leica symbol.

And the camera is not possible to connect to Leica app.

The menu on the camera is also showing a menu no 7 with a lot of unknown menus 

Hidden menu

Service menu

Reset camara

And so on

 these type of menus did not show up when updating my SL2. anyone else have these problems on SL2-S firmware 5.1?
