No real difference to 2.0:thumbup:, but it seems some minor bugs are fixed. I couldn't try out the lens detection for the Summilux 21:shocked::ROTFL:

Loaded it up, seems fine. On my M8, if the shutter button was pressed when the camera was off, the red light would light up for a second or two. Curiously that's how it came back from NJ after they replaced the power board(s). Seemed odd. With the new 2.002 firmware, now that's fixed.

I seem to have a problem with 2.002 which I have not experienced before. With both my M8 and my M8.2 body I find that perhaps 1 in 3-4 attempts to open the shutter in sensor cleaning mode fails, with the camera needing a battery removal to un-wedge.
The good news is that it is the only issue I have seen so far.

Hi Bob, I'm sorry to hear from this problem. Not sure if this is of any relief or help but I have this issue from day one (v1.06) and it occurs most of the time right after power-on and "Sensor cleaning" being the first action. So let's say you make a picture first then do the cleaning most of time it will work flawlessly. It seems the camera is not properly initialized after power-on. :confused:

Kind regards.

I will give that a try. Others have also reported that this is a long-standing problem, but it is the first that I have experienced it.
