SD Card Write Failure


Recommended Posts

Advertisement (gone after registration)

Has anyone experienced problems writing to SD cards? Occasionally I get a message telling me the image couldn’t be written to the SD Card. This happens even both newly formatted cards as well as cards formatted in camera with existing images. The only fix is to reformat the Card. Both Sandisk and Lexar are affected. I did read about problems with other Leica models and Sandisk but thought they had been resolved.

Possibly try cleaning the contacts ....... I did this by using a plastic friendly solvent on the SD card metal bits and repeatedly inserting/removing it, cleaning and applying more solvent several times. 

 

I had a similar problem with my M9 and it was dirty contacts in the camera.

 

Otherwise I can think of no other cause of intermittent problems....

And with the M9 we had the option of of using its USB port (and proprietary cable - or so it seems to be.)
