Live view and battery issues

Hi all, my M10 recently have 2 minor issues and I would like to know if anyone encounter similar problems. 

1. starting live view function sometimes does not work. I could hear the sound of curtain opening but the screen turns to grey only, just like the curtain unable to fully open.

2. when using live view, sometimes the red empty battery icon flashes then the whole camera shut down. Switch off and turn the camera on again, the problem always solve and the battery is still almost full. It happened a few times recently.

Any ideas? Thanks a lot.

Welcome here in this forum.

Heat is a concern with M10 using liveview.

Let the M10 coolling down before use it again.

 

Even worse when we use the Visoflex 020.

Same here, since start of M10 + 020 as I assume false contacts.

Precaution is clean contacts before inserting the Visoflex with M10 off.

Protect the hot shoe and Visoflex contacts, when not in use.

With every trouble M10+020, take the 020 out of the M10 then reinserting, always with M10 off.

When use the combo for a variable period of times, the heat would lead to variable misfunctioning, so let them cooling.

Thanks a lot for your kind reply. If I remember correctly, almost all of the issues I mentioned were in the middle of shooting section. I never imagine they were related to heating problem. I will take closer look from now on to see if it is caused by overheat. Thanks again.
