I wrote LEICA GERMANY yesterday about the problem of not having an auto shut off mode.
Here is there answer with a new firmware.
Did not try it as I am flying through Europe, so please guys, feed back about it.
I applaud their quick and professional reaction.
Our MD WILL BECOME PERFECT

I'm a little surprised Leica moved this quickly - the outcry must have been huge!
Well most of the M-D owners are on a first-name basis with Wetzlar.

Can the auto-shutoff behavior be turned on or off?

I don't believe so. I think if you don't want it, you shouldn't install the update.

i can see non updated M-D's getting collectors status in the future, imagine listing a non updated M-D in 2018 on ebay, the non-updating will bring a premium for sure who wants the lame auto-shut off anyway.

Guess one solution is to keep shooting, then it will never shut off
