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.

Excited to try this out! I haven't been in a position where I needed the perspective control yet but very happy to have it in my back pocket if needed

Exciting news on the firmware updates for the Leica SL2 and SL2-S! The Perspective Control feature is a fantastic addition, especially for architectural shots. The FN button customization is a welcomed tweak; makes things less overwhelming. And those lens profile updates? Awesome!
I've been contemplating updating my camera firmware, but I'm a bit cautious. Have you discovered any quirks or tips during the process?

By the way, do you guys have any suggestions on how to compress jpeg (like here https://jpeg-optimizer.com/) more than one at a time? Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. We've updated the firmware file with the extra “_0” in the name to be correctly recognized by the camera. Not sure why Leica provided a file with the wrong name, but we've fixed it on the Red Dot Forum FTP server.

Just FYI, not sure if just me but I had trouble with the SL2-S File. I noticed the file had a dash instead of underscore between the SL2 and S. When I switched to an underscore it worked but wouldn't work with the original dash. Thanks for posting this info and the comments. Very helpful

Thank you for posting this. Very helpful even for the SL2S firmware file!
