I've downloaded the CL 2.0 and 4.0 firmware update. About to download the 4.1 update. Do I need to download each firmware update i.e. 2.1, 3.0, 3.1, etc. to ensure I capture all the updates or will downloading the latest update (4.1) capture ALL the updates?

Construction and ergonomics are certainly different. They feel entirely different in hand, with the Leica featuring an all-metal barrel and the standard, great feel of focus and zoom rings. The Sigma feels and sounds hollow and plasticky, and has a very grindy plastic-on-plastic feel on the zoom and focus rings. And optically, based on our internal head-to-head testing, the Leica offered superior results. Now, this might be purely down to Leica's more stringent quality control requirements and tighter tolerances, but that is also something that you are guaranteed to get with the Leica lens. For a full breakdown and to see the testing, check out our Red Dot Forum Camera Talk episode on the 24-70 f/2.8 lens here: https://youtu.be/IAxlRBSD2jQ

Thank you David for another terrific monochrom test. While I am still likely to purchase the M10-M to pair with my M10-P, the Q2 Monochrom is very compelling too!

I viewed the video on downloading firmware updates (M 10) and it looked easy….. BUT I get this message
There is no application set to open the document “M10-P-3.21.3.50-Customer(1).FW”.
I searched the App Store …. found Leica Acquire but it was of no help.
Please help me

There is a mistake in the diagrams provided by Leica. Beginning from the sensor side there are:
– a single element, a doublet and a single element, for a total of 13 elements, as specified in the text, in the lens cut
– a single element and two doublets for a total of 14 elements in the technical drawing.

Interesting catch!

Same here, updated my SL2 to version 4 and 24-90mm lens to version 2.1.
However attaching 90-280mm lens shows “No firmware on SD card”
In accordance with the Press Release Notes, a Lightroom Tethered Plugin is also available, but I have been unable to locate the download.
