Displays

Notes:
• If the memory cards cannot be inserted, check that they are
aligned correctly.
• The range of memory cards available is constantly changing;
some cards may result in malfunctions when used in the
LEICA S2.
• Do not remove a memory card or the battery while the red
LED (1.19) at the bottom right of the monitor (1.22) is flashing
to indicate picture recording and/or data being saved to the
card(s). Otherwise the not yet (completely) saved picture
data may be lost.
• The LEICA S2 provides various options for saving picture
data. More information on this topic can be found under
„Saving picture data / memory card management" on p. 31.
• As electromagnetic fields, electrostatic charges, and defects
on the camera or the card(s) can lead to damage or loss of the
data on the memory card(s), we recommend that you also
transfer the data to a computer and save it there (see p. 52).
• For the same reason, it is recommended that cards are
always stored in an anti-static case.
