jrc Posted February 19, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted February 19, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) When I got up this morning, I couldn't get the M8 to turn on. When I unloaded and reloaded the battery (which the indicator said was full power, though it wasn't quite) the red light blinked, but then it wouldn't turn on. I tried a second battery, fresh off the charger, and that didn't work either. Then I left the battery out for ten minutes, loaded it, and it came right up. Â Think this is an indicator of trouble in the future, or just a routine blip? Â I will say that it's very dry and cold here right now, and when I was handling the camera, I was walking around on a woolen oriental carpet...

You just experienced a lockup of the kind that I surveyed about (and then wrote about).  Cheers,  Sean Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
