Nop, its a leica software issue. Easy to test just open the image in another software. The latest firmware in theory fixed this. I havent had any flip inages since updating.

I think Leica is doing their best to figure things out and eliminate it. It's a hassle on the rare occasions that it happens, but easy enough to fix. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, the bug is is definitely on the Leica side of the house, with my M11-D, 2.20 I encountered a series flipped images with background transfer ‘on’ within and observed in Leica Fotos, later transferred same images to LR and encountered the same flipped (seemed to happen to a series of shots in a row). It’s a simple LR 1 click to fix but just wanted to report this in case others encounter it. . Edited December 24, 2024 by RMF Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine did it for a bit and I rotated it a few times with the lens as the z axis and that was the end of that.

Mine did it for a bit and I rotated it a few times with the lens as the z axis and that was the end of that. I have seen behavior that seems counter to the gyro theory. The last time it happened, the upside down images were in the middle of a tripod mounted image sequence where the camera never moved. But, you are exactly correct - you never know with these things. In my experience, it's a very rare problem...maybe 1 in 2000 images, so I won't worry unless it becomes more frequent. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Blanko Posted January 15 Share #27 Posted January 15 Advertisement (gone after registration) I also encountered the „flipping“ (which is actually a rotating) with my M11-D, firmware 2.2.0. A sequence of 18 photos within a larger sequence of photos taken during a photowalk was rotated by 180 degrees, both in the Leica app and after importing to Capture One. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoe Posted February 5 Share #29 Posted February 5 I am experiencing the flip upside down images when I download into bridge. This happen once before for awhile thin it stopped but it's back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeicaGuyUK Posted February 15 Share #30 Posted February 15 My m11 has been great so far, zero freezes etc and bam today I get a 60 second hang and block of about 6 images are upside down. No real drama but it’s a shame I’ve fallen victim to it 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malabito Posted February 17 Share #31 Posted February 17 I mentioned earlier that this was fixed with the latest firmware… well, it seems like it hasn't. After using the camera for a while with the latest firmware, I got a set of flipped images multiple times. Yes, not as recurrent as before; yes, not a big issue, since you can just flip them back on the computer, but it continues to happen. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure it's a firmware thing, more likely the gyroscope getting confused/stuck. I don't know though obviously. There's never been any claim that the firmware has addressed this as an issue.

J S H Posted February 17 Share #33 Posted February 17 It seems like a camera bug or glitch and not necessarily related to firmware. However, it may be able to be addressed via firmware. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll teach me! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkny Posted May 22 Share #35 Posted May 22 This just started happening to me today after installing firmware 2.2.3. I have had my M11-P for just over a month and this is the first time it has happened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry40 Posted May 24 Share #36 Posted May 24 Happened to me ydy once but 90 deg not 180. I found it strange but did not bother much thinking before reading this thread. I may have turned the cam from portrait to landscape rather quick before pressing the button … Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was one of the many reasons I sold it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry40 Posted June 28 Share #38 Posted June 28 Just to add a little to the topic. I just had the issue while importing photos taken with my Q2…. Taken on portrait orientation originally, imported to LR direct from the af card … 2 photos out of 70+ where sideways…. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted June 29 Share #40 Posted June 29 It is probably a Lightroom issue: https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-classic-discussions/lightroom-6-having-an-issue-with-rotating-images/td-p/9716823 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
