Leica Camera will be changing the Leica M camera leatherette cladding for several M cameras. The following M cameras will now have a leatherette cladding as opposed to the previous vulcanite cladding: 10703 Leica M9-P, black paint finish 10704 Leica M9, black paint finish 10716 Leica M9-P, silver chrome finish 10360 Leica MP à la carte, [...]
I received a confirmation from Leica Camera that the latest M9 firmware version 1.176 will also work on Leica M9 Titanium cameras. The reason for the initial confusion was that Leica does not lists any firmware updates for the M9-T on their website.
The new firmware 1.176 for Leica M9/M9-P is now available for download on Leica’s website. As previously reported, the new firmware contains the latest fix for the SD card compatibility issue (note: this firmware update is not compatible with Leica M9 Titanium):
Tomorrow Leica Camera will release a new firmware version 1.176 for M9/M9-P rangefinders. The new firmware will fix the memory card compatibility issue for all SD card models. The previous firmware release still had issues with the San Disk Extreme Pro SDHC I UHS-1 and HD Video SDHC I cards.
