FIRMWARE 2.7.5.0 FOR LEICA M10/M10-P/M10-D RELEASED




By David Farkas, Leica Store Miami

Today, Leica Camera has released firmware version 2.7.5.0 for its M10, M10-P and M10-D digital rangefinder cameras. The firmware primarily addresses a few small bugs while adding stability and overall software improvements. Be aware that this is a large update, taking significantly longer to install than prior updates. So, an installation time up to 10 minutes is perfectly normal.

What’s New

The official firmware notes, from Leica:

  • Fast continuous shooting in Live View mode: Fixed screen freeze issue in ‘Continuous High’ mode while using Live View.
  • Incorrect regional GPS information: There were regional deviations in the GPS information. This bug has been fixed. (Please Note: GPS functionality requires the use of the Leica Visoflex EVF)
  • Stability of the connection between the camera and Leica FOTOS: Fixed connection issue between camera and app with more than 800 images on the camera.
  • New QR Code for Leica FOTOS. (Not for M10-D): The camera generates an optimized QR code for the connection to the app.
  • General software improvements for operating stability.
