One of those is video. I'll bet that many of us on this list, photographers all, have never shot a video with our digital camera, -----Original Message----- From: Adam Bridge Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2017 12:04 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Leica M10 How much effective time has been lost with the smaller battery? 5% 10% 25% I?ve never had a problem changing batteries on any camera. Even by power-hungry Sony A7Rii lets me shoot much of a day and changing the battery takes moments. So is this simply a specification issue or is it a real problem? I see the M10 as being what a digital Leica should be. Every ?modern? digital I have shoots video. The number of times I have used that capability? Less than 1% of the time I spend taking photos and literally no one has ever seen the video results. Hard to hang video on the wall (although the new LG TV might make me eat those words).
