SD Card trouble

[Foton150]

Hi,

 

I have bought the X Type 113 a few months ago.

As from the start, the camera had issues. Every now and then the SD blocked, and a sign on the left down corner showed me a countdown from 30 minutes.

In the meantime, the camera just blocked. Turning it off and back on again helped. But surely this shouldn't happen.

First weeks, I made 6 days of images on a brandnew mini SD card. At the end, the camera asked me to format the card, which I didn't allow.

After all possible means to recover it, all images were lost!

 

I have send my camera back to Leica for the second time, and they don't seem to find a problem.

They say it is a card problem...but in the meantime i tried 3 different ones, newly formatted by the X 113.

I think it's the motherboard, Leica thinks it's the cards :-/

 

Anyone faces this problem? Would love to hear.

In the instruction manual, Leica cautions that some "no name" cards may not function correctly.  I always use standard SanDisk brand cards and have encountered no problems.

I use Sony SD cards. No problems ever.
