Leica M11 firmware update version 1.2.1.0 released? *UPDATED*

By LR admin | Published: January 27, 2022


There is a report at the Leica M11 Facebook Group that Leica has released the first firmware update for the new M11 camera that will fix an existing function button bug. I could not find the new firmware update on Leica’s website – it will probably take a few hours for the page to update. Stay tuned for updates.

Update #1 – the new M11 firmware update is already listed on the official Leica website but it is not yet available for download:

Update #2 – the new M11 firmware update is now available for download.
