My M11 update was smooth and uneventful following the provided instructions. I did not have to reset the date and time. But the ‘USB Charge” option changed from YES to NO. My guess is they wanted to make sure the battery was used for the update.

I just received my trusty old (1986 vintage) M6 back from a CLA and MP finder upgrade after being without it for about 6 months, and it felt like the return of an old friend. I'm excited for those who pick up the M6 for the first time and put it to use. It is the (nearly) perfect photographic tool.

Hi Kate. I asked this on Leica Australia's Instagram page and they confirmed it's made in Germany.

Capture One is a great choice and offers official support for Leica DNGs. But we do continue to prefer Lightroom for file management and image processing. Lightroom works so well with Leica files due to Leica and Adobe's close collaboration since 2009. Adobe is a juggernaut in the imaging world. They continue to introduce new and powerful features, constantly improving image quality, processing speed and pushing what can be accomplished in a single end-to-end RAW workflow.
Choices are great. At the end of the day, use what works best for your photography and workflow. If that's C1, awesome.
