Maybe someone at Leica will see the post, probably not.
The sad thing is that the lack of auto-shutoff is touted as a FEATURE. It's
not a bug, it's a built-in, conscious design flaw. The intention is shave
precious milliseconds off the camera's start up time. I guess this looks
good in side-by-side comparisons with all their (non-existent) competition
in this market segment.
It proves again, at least to me, that while Leica may make cameras they no
longer understand photographers. The M-D is very likely the last Leica I
will ever buy (and second returned).
