lucy63 Posted September 3, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 3, 2021 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi.. I'm unable to format an SD card in my M10D using the Fotos app. I'd be grateful for any advice, I'm looking forward to using the camera but can't without formatting the card. Many thanks, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitz Posted September 3, 2021 Share #2 Posted September 3, 2021 Unfortunately I have no advice for SD card formatting. I do have advice for Leica - it is time to ditch the notoriously unreliable SD cards in place of the small CF Express card. Leica, please update your new camera models to current practice.

AndreasG Posted September 3, 2021 Share #3 Posted September 3, 2021 Is the write protection slider of the SD card in the correct position? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some SD cards which have the sliding "lock" so loose that when I push the SD card in a reader (sometimes in the camera), the "lock" SD inspite of write/read, it was not planned and when I took it out, the sliding was only 0.5 to 1 mm in the wrong "lock" direction.

Thanks. No, that doesn't seem to be it but I've used another card and it formatted OK. Both brand new Extreme pro cards but there must be a glitch. May I ask another question?..The photo's I take are showing up as b+w in leica Fotos app and as previews in LR. They change to colour when I upload them. It's strange!

jaapv Posted September 3, 2021 Share #6 Posted September 3, 2021 Not really - you must have set the jpg to B&W, but the DNG will always be in colour. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx. I set the camera to use DNG only but the previous owner used b+w jpg and for some reason that I don't understand the camera needed resetting to sort the problem out.
