FW Bug? LV button occasionally unresponsive

Hello

 

I have noticed that very occasionally the LV and Menu button is unresponsive on my brand new Leica M10 - Outer Box Date 30/1/17. It does not appear to be a mechanical issue and the LV button is responsive again once I take an image and the auto preview displays or if I press the Play button first. The issue then goes away. I don't have the Visoflex 020 yet and use the LCD and noticed this when I tried to use a 15mm lens today.

 

It is very difficult to replicate the problem consistently - I have changed memory cards and reset the camera settings. I am on Firmware version 1.0.2.0

 

Thanks

 

Nicholas

 

EDIT - All resolved thanks to Digitalfx - this was user error on my part just tap the button quickly...dont push and hold

Ah, I thought my M10 had a defect LV button, but I experience exactly the same issue as you discribe. Hopefully a bug that can be corrected in firmware.

OK cool looks like I am not the only one then - what version of Firmware are you on ?

Exactly, I thought the same thing until I figured that out.
