Thanks, Mehrdad! Your post, however is rather disappointing. From
what I'd been led to believe (from others, more "in the know" than
myself - not by Leica), it would be a rather significant improvement,
particularly in regards to white balance and a myriad of minor bug
fixes. Sounds as if the bug fixes need one more "go 'round", though
I fear that is unlikely, at this stage.
I don't think SDHC support was ever in the cards, as I don't think
the hardware was sufficiently capable. Remember, the DMR was years
late, thanks to Leica (in financial troubles at the time) depending
on Imacon (also in financial difficulties, at the time). Pity, as
I'd really liked to have kept my DMR, and had a truly significant
upgrade in v1.3. Mind you, bugs or no, with v1.2, it was a
formidable image cutter.... far superior to the Canon I am using
until the R10 sees the light of day!
Incidentally, many folks have complained about the white balance in
the DMR ... particularly with v1.0 and 1.1. However, with v1.2 I
found the DMR's white balance to be every bit as good as the Canon
30D I'm presently using with my Leica glass.... it could stand an upgrade, too!
Thanks again, for your reply.
Cheers!
