Hi, has anyone encountered a soft buzzing sound when playing back photos from Leica Q3?

I brought my set to the official Leica service centre and the technician just got back to me that it is normal. May I know if any of you is facing the same issue?

Hi. Do u mean you press the play button, then press menu button, then select slideshow?

or just click on the play button and use the scroll left right button?

I just tested both ways I don’t hear any sound.

Hi. I've just got a Q3 and noticed this high pitched noise when reviewing photos on the screen as well. I think it might be coil whine. What did you do in the end about yours?

Over the years I have had quite a few digital cameras that produced a slight  high-pitched buzzing sound. The Q is no exception, it seems.

My brand new Q3 (received 2 days ago) also has like coil whine when in playback, but then again, so did my Fujifilms, i noticed it depends on the battery being used, I have 2, one sounds significantly quieter than the other.

I am not worried and do not care as this is normal to me (plus i dont go around with the camera slapped against my ear).
