Can anyone shed any light on this problem with my Digilux 1?
I recently was left by my late brother a near mint , complete and hardly used Digilux 1 which he had bought new in 2004. I know that he only had taken a few hundred photos in all this time. I tested it out in a local churchyard and produced a rather nice set of photos. I then decided to use an SD card which I had cleared and formatted on my iMac. When I then inserted the card into the camera a message appeared on the screen saying "No memory Card". I tried again and re-inserted the battery. I tried the card in more modern Leica Digital cameras and it worked perfectly. I tried other cards known to be working but still got the same message on the screen. The green light stayed on permanently even with the camera switched off! Removing the battery sorted that.
However, there was still an image on the screen and I could take a flash photo which of course could not be saved. The zoom and focus still worked.
Was it just a co-incidence or did that iMac formatted card cause the problem?
Your thoughts, please!
Thanks, Tony cowan
