FIRMWARE UPDATES
Leica is continuously working on the further improve-
ment and optimization of your camera. Since many
camera functions are entirely controlled by software,
some of these improvements and additions to the func-
tional scope can be installed in retrospect. Leica offers
firmware updates at irregular intervals, which you can
download from our website.
Leica will notify you of any new updates, once you
have registered your camera. Users of Leica FOTOS
will also be automatically notified about firmware up-
dates for their Leica cameras.
There are two options for installing firmware updates.
–conveniently via the Leica FOTOS app
–directly via the camera menu
Finding the currently installed firmware
version
→Select Firmware Update in the capture menu

More information about registering, firmware updates
and how to download them to your camera, as well as
any amendments and additions to this manual can be
found in the customer area of our website at:
