allan d Posted June 24, 2013 Share #1 Posted June 24, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) My Digilux 2 has recently gotten two errors: The first error is the aperture settings. The aperture setting, which is adjusted electronically by the camera, is misaligned with the physical aperture ring. When I set the aperture ring to F4 the camera will adjust the aperture to F2.5. On F5.6 the aperture is F3.6. On F11 it's F5.6. And on Auto Aperture (the rightmost F-stop setting) it's F7.1. The second error is that the camera no longer detects when the pop-up flash is closed. It will fire the flash even when it's closed. I have to manually disable the flash in the menus. These two errors appeared after I disassembled the camera to clean the EVF. Some dirt had somehow gotten inside the EVF. And the shutter button would sometimes get stuck so I cleaned it as well. I followed this guide: Panasonic LC1 & Leica Digilux 2 disassembly guide | Repair notes I have disassembled and reassembled the camera a couple of times to make sure everything was in place and correctly connected. And I have reset all settings. I still don't know what's causing the errors. Apart from the two errors the camera is in perfect working condition. Any ideas on how to fix the errors?

Guytou Posted June 24, 2013 Share #2 Posted June 24, 2013 Perhaps that he did not like this operation…: Confused: I see three solutions: - to start again the operation delicately - nothing to make and leave thus - to send to the customer service Leica Good luck !

jaapv Posted June 25, 2013 Share #3 Posted June 25, 2013 Well, the last two words of these disassembly notes are "good luck" I guess that says it all. Your best course of action would be to send it to Leica for proper assembly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan d Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share #4 Posted June 25, 2013 Yeah, I'm probably going to send the camera to Leica for repair. More errors have suddenly appeared. All pictures now have a pink hue. See the attached picture. Welcome, dear visitor!

Guytou Posted June 26, 2013 Share #5 Posted June 26, 2013 Ouch ! I think that it is wise now to send it at Leica's Doctor... : ( Guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
