[LRflex] Lumix/Digilux Users, help seeked, Bug un Firmware 2.0?

Hello Listers,

Being in Languedoc, I  have some light and some time to play with the 
Digilux.

I have discovered the following:
Which ever mode A/P/S/M, which ever the customised values for the button 
AFL/AEL when the camera is in focus mode AFS or MF, depressing lighly the 
shutter memorises and lock the exposure.

This is very annoying since when using a R lense, it is better to press 
lightly the shutter to activate the focus confirmation and then adjust the 
exposure.

However, on this camera, there is a button called AEL/AFL, customisable to 
lock the exposure. No need to have the shutter to do that.

There is another anoying bug, when using a R lens of small aperture, the 
display in the viewfinder dims out as it believe that the camera is in a low 
light situation. When using a VarioElmar 14-50, the digilux operates OK but 
when using a Tamron, at f5.6, the view finder information (speed, exposure 
scale, etc) is hard to read in fll light.

Please, if you happen to have the Firmware 2.0 Lumix, could you check these 
points?


I have sent the description of this to a contact of Leica France.

Any bug with the latest DMR Firmware to report?


Good Day
