Hello to all the forum members.

 

Im trying to update the latest firmware update for my Q.

 

Ive followed all the instructions until I get to the "video release button" stage. Is this the shutter release button the red dot button on top of my camera?

 

Ive tried several combinations but it still fails to update

Hello to all the forum members.

 

Im trying to update the latest firmware update for my Q.

Here are the instructions.  The video button has the red dot on it.  It's not the shutter button.

 

How to update:

  1. Download an updated version of the firmware.
  2. Copy the firmware file onto a SD Memory Card in its top level folder.
  3. Make sure to turn off the power switch on the camera.
  4. Insert the fully charged battery to the body. If the battery is not fully charged, the update process screen will not appear.
  5. Insert the SD Memory Card into the camera.
  6. FROM THE OFF POSITION. Turn the camera – while simultaneously pressing the video release button – ON
  7. The firmware update screen will appear. Press OK.
  8. The LEICA Q will start the update process. The firmware update will take about 90 seconds.
  9. After the update process please restart the camera (if necessary remove and reinsert the battery).

Note:  your update file which I assume you have transferred onto your SDcard from your computer MUST NOT be in a Sub-folder on your card.  It has to be at the top level and it will be discovered and executed by your Q when you do step 6.
