Tim Tashley reports on LUF that the 8.2 snapshot mode is JPEG only and none of the "Help" functions work.

I suppose that's better than one step forward and two steps back!I keep getting the feeling it's two steps forward and one step back.
I'm very well just bagged a Canon S-mount 50/1.2 for the IIIG.
As far as I can tell from other posts it works as advertised..... However, it is something you are bound to never use.HI John
I hope you're well
It leads one to wonder why they didn't beta test it . . . .
doesn't it
Fair enough . . . but as far as I can tell they've missed the opportunity to improve the jpg quality . . . I rather approve of jpgs as long as it's well implemented and not too compressed.As far as I can tell from other posts it works as advertised..... However, it is something you are bound to never use.
It is jpeg only
Help is available (DOF info) on wide angle lenses (Tim went back and found that it did work)
Snapshot mode is something of a curiosity, even a non-feature in my opinion. Is this something that anyone really needs or wants?As far as I can tell from other posts it works as advertised..... However, it is something you are bound to never use.
I hate to say this but more M8 users may shoot just JPEG than we know. In May 07, I attended the Dallas Leica M8 workshop and of the dozen M8 users (had not bought yet) all but one only shot JPEG. I was to say the least amazed.Snapshot mode is something of a curiosity, even a non-feature in my opinion. Is this something that anyone really needs or wants?
