Leica Dlux 7 Camera freezes especially after charging. Anyone else having this problem. I have found that taking battery out and reinstall it gets it working again. Just a little concerned as camera only a Month old.

Hallo,

Look here: Leica Lux

Same for me, happens mostly when connected to WiFi. As long as you do not access pictures everything should be fine. I guess it's a firmware issue, but I did not find an update for 1.1 yet.

I have also had this happen.  Also, I cannot select the AE\AF function from the menu system regardless or the mode the camera is in.

I also have this problem on the D-Lux 7.  The camera is 6 months old and it has happened twice in the last month.  the camera freezes and cannot be turned off in the normal way, the controls have no effect and the lens is stuck out.  Both times, the only way to fix this was to remove the battery.

Has anyone found a fix?  Is there a software fix coming?

Hi All, I use an external Battery Charger, use FOTOS and have no Freezing Issues (yet) Camera is 2 months old.. In regards to Settings, try aMenu Reset.. Use higher EVF refresh rate...  L

At least for me it's running without any issues since the last firmware update.

Bought mine in April 2020 and it is my 'go to' pocket camera when out & about in town and countryside and it has always performed flawlessly.
