I tried to install this via FOTOS app. Did not work after 2 hours installing. I restarted the camera and it was still on V1.3.0. The FOTOS app did not indicate that V2.0.1 was available any longer. Strange.

Not available on Leica firmware download page.

Tried again as the update showed once more on FOTOS. It updated quickly - about 5 minutes.

Updated right now... some problems connecting the camera to the app but now everything is working fine. I don't know what to expect but the only thing i wish for, is the ability to use a single custom button to activate on the fly the AF-C + Eye/Face detect functionalities as on Sony bodies (or at least to switch immediately between two AF modes of my choices).

I think that one has to be a little bit patient. It seems that it's not the case that every registered user gets the info at the same time. Neither is the update visible in the Leica Fotos app at the same time in all countries. That is my experience anyway.

I never turn on my camera, just launching the foto app, normally that’s where your camera to connect is. And under it has a comment saying update available. 
 

so I then proceed to turn on my camera, but never connect foto app to camera.

I Just need to click on my foto app the update available.

Then it will auto connect to camera and everything is automated. 
 

I find that the half pressed shutter to focus does not darken the evf anymore. 
‘Previously half pressed shutter the evf will darken.

For those (like me) who prefer to install from a download put on an SD card in the camera the download is now live on the Leica site (scroll down the page to see it).

The installation process is actually the same. Just the download goes via the app directly into the camera. If only you would try 😄. You would delete your post above 😇

Life is too short …

...to wait for the blackout time!!!!

 

it is totally amazing, when the camera is set to 2fps now, there is no blackout visible, the image stutters a tiny bit, but hardly noticeable. single drive seems to quite the same as before. I am happy!

This is getting really fun now, THANKS Leica, now it is!

- Blackout removed, at incredible 2fps! Zero blackout.

- In Auto no annoying exposure changes. 

- Faster startup (never really a problem)

The only thing that for my criteria could be incorporated would be to have the option of using Tracking Focus + Face Focus, this way when there are faces it would make the perfect tracking of said face (AFc) and when it is an object (and no faces appear in the image) it would follow that object when you set the focus on that thing.

And with Tracking Focus selected (AFc), once you focus on something, it would be great if it showed the actual true exposure of what will appear in the photo when you click.

With that it would be PERFECT!

I had tried to download the new FW via Leica Foto App but never got the connection established by either BT or OEM cable. Very frustrating. Then, magically an email came in about the FW. I downloaded it on the SD card and life was easy again. From this update, my conclusion is I don’t like the App.

besides that, the startup is quicker and the preview might be better. That’s all I can tell. The blackout is still there.

The blackout at 2ftp is Zero! Try it :)
