carol foster Posted April 2, 2023 Share #1 Posted April 2, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) In the last few days my Leica C is only working on snapshot mode. Previously it was on P mode. Every other mode is blurred. Any ideas? Thank you Carol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wda Posted April 2, 2023 Share #2 Posted April 2, 2023 I have no direct solution, Carol, but try a newly charged battery, and/or a newly formatted card, or a factory reset (check the user manual for details). These generic solutions often cure obscure problems. Please report back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes if I have mine in my pocket the Mode dial moves slightly and yours might have moved to "P" instead of the black "A" on a white square. If that's not it have you perhaps changed any of the settings that are not supported by Snapshot Mode? (Mine sits in Aperture Mode all the time so I'm not familiar with Snapshot Mode.) For instance "Raw" is not supported by Snapshot so if you've changed to Raw (under the Record menu) then the camera will put it into to one of the modes that will.

carol foster Posted April 12, 2023 Author Share #6 Posted April 12, 2023 Hi yes, I have tried it on every mode and it does not focus. I usually shoot on aperture mode and it wont focus at all. Also tried a newly charged battery, and a newly formatted card, Thanks in advance. Carol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indeepthought Posted April 12, 2023 Share #7 Posted April 12, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) As a last ditch before the Leica Service Department, (1) I would leave the battery out for 24hours (2) Try a different SD Card (3) ReInstall the latest firmware. Depending on the age of the camera, it might be time for a replacement. Regards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
