The simple deletion in Mac Photos is it downloads pics, then automatically wipes card. I'm not sure how it can get more simple, other than it does not automatically "eject" the card after download/wipe? But if I use a USB-C cable to do the downloading, it will wipe the card, then I turn off my M11, which "ejects" it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I use a USB-C cable to do the downloading, it will wipe the card, then I turn off my M11, which "ejects" it. That is not a "simple" delete, as modern OSs do everything in the most complicated way :). In theory, a delete with Mac OS has been designed and tested to work on media handled by Mac OS, but M11's filesystem may not handle it well. Also, turning off M11 instead of ejecting the USB drive properly could corrupt data on the SD card (not an issue if the disk was not mounted in the first place). It is fine if it works for you, but I do not think it is safe. I wondered why some people always have issues with M11's stability while others do not. It could be how they handle M11's data from the computer—or not . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the M11D a camera to forget or is it only about a few very unfortunate users who picked a wrong copy ? I'm happy with my M11-D............ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marchyman Posted May 26 Share #46 Posted May 26 14 hours ago, SrMi said: Is there a simple deletion in the current computer OSs? Running SD Formatter on the computer is safe. Yes. On my Mac the fancy stuff lives on top of Darwin, a unix-like OS based upon FreeBSD and Mach. The unix command "rm <filename>" is the simple delete based upon the 'unlink' system call. My image import process uses such commands as "cp" (copy), "cmp" (compare), and "rm" (remove) in a script to get images from SD card. I type something like "pics <name of folder>" and the script does the rest of the work. I could go the extra step and turn that into a GUI app using something like applescript, but it's not worth my bother as I always have a terminal window open on my desktop, anyway. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there is your answer… 6 months of this and not a single issue. Apple has it sorted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really doesn’t need to be a thing. Don’t keep Fotos on your phone (as I don’t - a tablet is fine and idk about anyone else but I never carry that around with my camera), or better yet, don’t even keep a smartphone. Life is better without one. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

o2mpx Posted May 29 Share #50 Posted May 29 Is the fotos app a must have for setup and post setup normal usage? Or just for setup? Knowing it’s a fringe case, but if the app somehow isn’t available either for setup or post setup use, are things dead in the water? Or can the built in button sequences handle setup and normal usage? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing is you’re stuck with your WB - which for me I always use daylight (and always have) - and you’re stuck with your auto ISO settings. I could imagine some people might want to change that from time to time. I don’t feel the need. No, nothing is dead in the water without the app. You’re just shooting at factory settings.

david911 Posted May 30 Share #52 Posted May 30 I also like my M11D. It reminds me of a film camera. I used the fotos app to set up, and occasionally use it to format a card, update firmware, and even once or twice used for previewing focus when camera was on tripod (M11D is my only camera). I am very happy I got it instead of the M11M, converting to BW seems like a non-issue to me in post, since I am always doing something. The M11D generally prohibits me from confounding image creation with image editing, i.e. when I am taking pictures I am not thinking about whether they "came out", I can just go with the flow. I also really like the very limited controls on the camera, keeps it very simple. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very occasionally I need the app to implement a 2 second delay when I use my M11-D on a tripod. I really wish there was that function built into the function button on the camera. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Rainey Posted June 4 Share #54 Posted June 4 Just a question, has the firmware progressed to the point where you can copy from the INT memory to an SD Card within the FOTOs app? Also, formatting the INT and SD is now possible in FOTOs? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Jurgensen Posted June 6 Share #55 Posted June 6 TSEG, I guess that you want to use exposure with the 2 second timer in order to avoid shaking of the camera. I use exposures from the Leica Photo app for the same purpose. Jan Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
