CalStanford Posted September 6, 2023 Share #1 Posted September 6, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi friends, apologies in advance for the newbie question but this is my first Leica with USB-C charging. How do I know if it is charging? There's a symbol next to the battery status showing that the camera is powered by USB-C but I don't know if that means it's charging or not. An hour and half later the battery seems to still hover around the same 60% it came with. Eventually the camera turned itself onto standby and the lightly green light right above the back panel display started blinking. Does that mean it's charging? Thanks and sorry for the newbness!

YvonneS Posted September 6, 2023 Share #2 Posted September 6, 2023 Yes, the green light blinking means it is charging. A solid green light means it’s fully charged 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalStanford Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share #3 Posted September 6, 2023 Thank you Yvonne. Appreciate your help! Realised that the connection is a bit fiddly. It has stopped charging at around 70% and wouldn't go further until I tried a different usb-c charging cable i had and now it continues to charge. Odd, but at least now I know which cable works better 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
