Hi

 

I've searched everywhere with no luck regarding this issue. I have this Leica M8.2, and when I shoot 3-5 frames at a fast pace, I get these pixel errors.

I really can't figure out what it is. The only suspicion I have, is that I use third party batteries. I can't find any original Leica batteries online, so

i went buying third party ones.

I really hope someone can address the issue with my camera. Maybe the solution is to send it to Wetzlar, I dont know.

If someone in here have had the same problem and found a solution, I will be glad to hear it.

Does the camera display this when in"play" mode, i.e. when it should show the picture taken?

The Leica Q3 is available for pre-order at B&H Photo Video and Adorama

It shows up in both auto review mode and in play mode, even when im viewing the images on the computer

You've tried a new card?  And a nice freshly charged battery?

My original M8, one from very early production, would give similar errors with all types of cards except Delkin E-Film Class 6 cards.  I bought 4 and have had no problems in over 10 years now.

 

I would try a faster SD (not SDHC or SDXC) card of a different brand and a new, fully-charged Leica-brand battery.
