Title: Leaf / Mamiya trouble
Post by: LasseDPF on July 26, 2006, 02:51:17 pm
I just got my Mamiya AFD and Leaf 17 a couple of week ago.

On several occations, at least once a day, I get "no db" or "No camera connected" error message.

Spinning Leaf logo keeps spinning.. and spinning.. and spinning.. On a couple of occations I have gotten a big Leaf covering almost the entire screen.. Looks like the Catpure 8 icon..

Currupted preview. RGB channels not aligned.. Though only on the back. Files are perfect when opened i Lef Capture.

My dealer sugests that I upgrade to the Sandisk Extreme CF card, as some if this may be because of an incompatible CF card.. Is the Aptus "picky" on CF cards ? I use the  same cards in a Canon 2dsMK2 with no problems what so ever.. (the resolution and filesize is about the same.. ??)

Noise reductions seems a little vierd. I have had "blocks" where noise reductions suddenly seems to be Off..  I also get jagged diagonal lines and rainbow hair (moire?)

Any sugestions ?

If you let it sit too long the back will lock up .
