Q&A Troubleshooting
■
Monitor/viewfinder
The monitor/viewfinder is turned off although the camera is turned on.
• If no operations are performed during the set time period [Auto EVF/Monitor Off] (→199) is
activated, and the monitor/viewfinder turns off.
• When a hand or an object is close to the eye sensor, the monitor display mode could be switched
to viewfinder display mode. (→31)
The monitor/viewfinder image may flicker for an instant or the brightness of the screen may
change significantly for an instant.
• This occurs due to the aperture of the lens changing when the shutter button is pressed halfway, or
when the brightness of the subject changes. This is not a malfunction.
Pressing [EVF] does not switch between the monitor and viewfinder.
• When it is connected to a computer or printer, the camera can display pictures on the monitor only.
■
Playback
Pictures cannot be viewed. There are no recorded pictures.
• A card is not inserted in the camera.
• Has the file name of the picture been changed on a computer? If so, it cannot be played back on
the camera.
→ It is recommended to use the software available for downloading after registering your camera
on the Leica Camera AG homepage (→262) to write pictures from PC to card.
• Set [Playback Mode] to [Normal Play]. (→209)
Red areas in pictures appear blackened.
• When the digital red-eye correction ([
], [ ]) is operating, red areas may be blackened.
→ We recommend closing the built-in flash, setting the flash mode to [
], or setting [Red-Eye
Removal] to [OFF] before recording. (→174)
