iamwhatigram Posted August 17, 2014 Share #1 Posted August 17, 2014 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi there guys, I had a problem with my M and was wondering if any of you had a similar problem. The camera will not turn on. I've checked the battery (bought a new charger and battery) and it seems fine. I removed the battery overnight and it didn't help. The red light flickers for a second and then goes out but there is no functionality. If I hold the info button while I turn it on, I get a brief ability to see a menu (maybe 5-6 seconds) but then it goes out again. I brought it into Leica Soho and they played with it for a while and were not able to get it operating. We've sent it off to Leica in NJ hoping they have an answer. It's only about 8 mos old. Any thoughts? It has never been exposed to heat or moisture and it is always pampered like the fine instrument it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted August 17, 2014 Share #2 Posted August 17, 2014 Sounds like it just broke down. Not a common complaint, but it can happen, I guess. I hope it is back in your hands soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
carneiro Posted August 17, 2014 Share #3 Posted August 17, 2014 Yes, I had the same problem with my first M 240. It was a defect in a conductor. It started with the camera freezing several times. Then I was unable to turn it off and finally to turn it on... They replaced the camera. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
