A reader sent me this picture of his brand new Leica SL Typ 601 mirrorlesss camera that came with firmware update version 1.2 (the original version during launch was 1.0). Expect the official announcement in the next few days. Here is what to expect:
I do not know what really changed, but now, when I use my M lenses, I can activate the magnification by pressing the joystick button with my right thumb; I can now also activate the exposure compensation quickly: I have assigned this function to the FN button on the front of my camera. It seems to me that these features were not present in the previous firmware.
Update: the new 1.2 firmware update will be released on December 14th.
