lecycliste Posted February 13, 2021 Share #1 Posted February 13, 2021 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) My SL2 is locked up - indicates ERROR in top display, no viewfinder / EVF / LCD display, but I can see aperture changing in top display if I change the light in front of the lens. No problems for four months after purchase brand new from B&H, then I use a Metabones-adapted Macro-Elmar-R 60mm f/2.8 for the first time, and after a day of successful photography the camera is locked up this evening. Tried removing the battery for 10 seconds for reset - still locked up with ERROR in top display on power up. Tried different lenses - Sigma L-mount 85/1.4 DG DN Art that worked fine for four months, Leica M lenses on M adapter L that also worked fine for four months. Tried a couple different batteries. Still nothing. **Any insights or fixes?** Combination of camera button presses to reset camera? Thanks.- Welcome, dear visitor!

lecycliste Posted February 13, 2021 Author Share #2 Posted February 13, 2021 OK, solved my own problem. Pulled out #1 SD card and reinserted. May not have been put in all the way. OK 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_tribble Posted February 13, 2021 Share #3 Posted February 13, 2021 I’d strongly recommend replacing the SD cards. I’ve gone through exactly the same problem with Lexar 64GB 90 MB/s cards. More replaced with Sandisk and no recurrence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anakronox Posted February 14, 2021 Share #4 Posted February 14, 2021 This also happened to me with some Lexar 128 MB cards several months back. I reformatted each twice and it hasn't plagued me since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reformatting in-camera so far has worked well, but this utility may come in handy! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
