Coding Question

Coding Question

It may just be coincidence but now my 2 Zeiss (hand-coded) lenses are not being recognized with the firmware. I hope it's just the markings have rubbed off and not something Leica did with making lens coding tolerances higher somehow in the firmware.

Can anyone confirm that their hand-coded lenses are still recognized with new firmware. Thank you in advance.

Anyone who's hoping the freezing problem is over ... forget it. Mine did it today after about twenty shots ... it was also consistently displaying the previous frame when reviewing ... more so than ever in fact!

Sigh!!! 🙁

I do not understand how your camera could do this and not others. It leads me to think that there is a physical problem with your M8 as I have never seen this problem with any of mine and I have owned three M8s.

The freezing problem seems to have been reported by a few owners from memory and it's not something that happens constantly ... in fact in the three months I have had the camera it's probably done it four times. It caught me by surprise today but is easily remedied by removing and refitting the battery. The frame reviewing glitch was the first time in a month and happened three or four times in a row ... then ok!

The trouble with living in Oz is I am reluctant to complain as I would hate to lose the camera for a lengthy period for a warranty claim. I guess if it becomes a real problem I won't have any choice!
