How do you switch off your camera: with the on/off buttom on the DM-R
or on top of the camera? Or are only the camera-electronics turned
off by the camera itself after a few seconds/minutes? This auto-off-
function
seems to create your 'problem' to my opinion. I have checked this on
my R8/DM-R and it acts like your R9/DM-R. Just touch one of your 3
release-buttons
and the camera-electronics are switched on and the EV functions
work OK.!
I use the switch on the top of the camera, the only way I have ever
known to turn the camera and DMR on and off. The button on the DMR is
not an on/off button on my DMR; it is an ok/off button used in
conjunction with the display, delete functions, etc.
This all happens with the auto turn off disabled so that should not
be a factor. Touching the shutter release buttons has no effect. Glad
your R8/DMR works as it should.
I just got off the phone with Leica New Jersey and described my two
problems, no EV adjustment or indication and, with switch off,
insertion of a fresh battery results in a brief display of the Leica
logo in the main window and the LCD display comes on and stays on,
but of course the camera is not functional, no metering no shutter
release, etc.
Leica said to send it to them so I will FedEx it to them today and
hope for the best. Stay tuned.
All the best,
Bill
