Advertisement Posted January 3 Posted January 3 Hi JNK100, Take a look here Does the M11 have a guaranteed design flaw?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
JNK100 Posted January 3 Share #22 Posted January 3 7 hours ago, Henners said: I think due to the nature of what the internal storage is used for (single write for storing an image, a few reads for preview on screen and copying to phone/computer) it's very lightweight usage. I'd guess that you'd have to be a very heavy user, constantly photographing in a studio for 10+ years to even get to the point it might become some kind of issue, even then I think you'd be a long way off. I've not done any googling on the read/writes and figured it out in any scientific way so I could be completely wrong but that's my thoughts. SSD storage is used for operating systems and they hammer the read/writes all day every day and those drives will still last many many years. I agree - nothing to see here. 8 hours ago, Photoworks said: is this random or what? Just a tad..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

setuporg Posted January 3 Share #24 Posted January 3 All M cameras have numerous guaranteed design flaws: the shutter will wear out eventually if you drop it, things go out of alignment or break if you put it in water, it may go kaput if you don't love it, it will sabotage you 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyCheng Posted January 4 Share #28 Posted January 4 theoratically yes. But ssds are so much more durable than conventional hdds already. In my years of using laptops, I've yet to have this issue. Plus I rarely use my internal storage, only for emergency. I don't think anyone should be worried about this. The circuit is gonna go wrong way sooner than the ssd. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was making a joke that the mechanical rangefinder itself is a guaranteed design flaw. As in, the rangefinder will eventually need to be adjusted, unlike auto focus cameras. queue the bad joke drum roll Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of an internal memory failure. So ask this question in a couple of decades. Or maybe within a century or so: https://www.technewstoday.com/lifespan-of-ssd/ Incorrect! The buffer is not an SSD. It is the same as RAM in your computer and has an infinitely longer lifespan. So worst case scenario is write to the memory card if internal fails. It’s possible the storage is scanned on power on so that might come into play but I doubt it 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must treat your prints as if they are large format sheet film - keep them in a light proof film safe and only look at them or show them to others in the safety of your dark room in absolute pitch black darkness.

I find that particular technique is really good for the blacks. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
