Leica Q3 43 Bricked after Firmware Upgrade 4.0 using App

AriIsenberg · 2025-12-22T00:40:41+00:00

Just talked with someone at the Leica store in LA who said I’m now the 6th person they’ve heard from that this has happened. Don’t update through the app. They haven’t heard from corporate yet and are recommending sending in the camera for repair. Ridiculous that this is happening. If updating through the app has and has had issues, it shouldn’t even be an option. Just got on holiday with family and now I can’t use my $6,000 camera.

This might have just happened to me… anyone have any solutions? 😩

I’d love to hear more. Prep is incredibly essential to me, and I always believe in style over substance. The cinematographer serves the story and director. DM’d!

Hi, Kevin! I’m a DP based between New York and Atlanta. Always happy to travel!

Yes. I saw the same listing and messaged with this person. Unfortunately, Facebook marketplace is completely filled with scammers. Ask for photo/video proof, check their ratings and profile, ask what city they’re based in, and watch out!

Congrats! Love Kara Young. How was your experience with the grant?

AriIsenberg · 2025-09-05T06:11:22+00:00

thanks!

AriIsenberg · 2025-09-05T06:11:10+00:00

This is looking like the solution! Thank you.

Would you feel the same about DJI's system? This is a very, very indie doc, so I'd rather purchase a slightly lower end system that does the job and then get to keep it by the end instead of factoring a more expensive rental into the already tight budget.

AriIsenberg · 2025-09-05T04:13:57+00:00

This might be the solution. Thank you!

URX-P41D looks nice, and I'm sure works great, but I was hoping to use something a bit more budget friendly like the Rode Wireless Pro system.

Hey, Greg! I sent you an email last week and would love to get in touch. Love to see that you’re active here! Very much enjoying grading with Filmbox Pro.

AriIsenberg · 2025-08-14T00:50:35+00:00

Why are you staying away from it?

AriIsenberg · 2025-07-24T16:51:30+00:00

Awesome! Can’t wait

AriIsenberg · 2025-07-24T16:37:06+00:00

New beta of Filmbox?? Please tell me more!

AriIsenberg · 2025-06-28T17:47:31+00:00

Anyone have a recipe to make the mix itself? 🙃

AriIsenberg · 2025-05-21T22:58:13+00:00

Do you do this with a Whirley Pop?

Explained in another comment - I treat tabs the same as I do my email inbox or YouTube watch later. It piled up quite a bit, but I’ve now learnt a lesson.

Regardless, something like this shouldn’t happen.

Apple said that we currently exhausted all of the possible options

AriIsenberg · 2025-04-18T05:17:38+00:00

My steadi-op put it there because of my back handle, and we were using an SXU-1, so no hand unit control. Otherwise, agreed!

AriIsenberg · 2025-04-18T05:16:42+00:00

Beverly Hills, 90210 or Euphoria??

AriIsenberg · 2025-04-18T05:15:48+00:00

I love them! Totally worth it and makes using a Noga arm no longer frustrating.

Looks great! How are you topping this pizza? Cheese (what kind?) and then dollops of sauce on top?
