Never had that with any M?
Suddenly my card is full (even if I delete pictures) and the screen on my Monochrom asks for a reset of the folder number.
Anybody with experience of this problem.
I'm unfamiliar with the problem or camera (or Leica, where
not Panasonic). What is the current folder number?
Just some assoc'd info I know, though, from Pany L- & GX7s,
and Oly E-M5 regarding different notions for "Reset" :
with the Pany cameras, Reset is a command that will have
the effect of bumping folder # +1 IFF there is some file in
the current folder, and then setting the (next) file # to 001;
whereas with Oly (E-M5 at least), Reset puts the camera in
a state such that if an empty memory card exists (say, via
Format), the folder # is reset to 100 and the file # to 0001
(yeah, extra '0' for Pany).
(I got to learn this in wanting for various Pany bodies to have
each w/unique filenames which begin P<folder#> and so needing
to photo-reset-photo-reset... until bumping to P200, P300.
And for starting w/0001 in Oly on new year, needing a new
card, and then the Reset state (having my first part of filename
a year-month-day indicator (now G214).)
Conceivably, wrt to your Leica situation, the issue revolves
around file #s and the next-to-issue one irrespective of
extant files in the folder --i.e., that a folder will hold #s
001 .. 999 no matter if one deletes some portion of these;
that if file #999 on prior shot, that's spent and gone and
a rollover to 001 awaits a new folder!?
But why this new folder doesn't come automatically is
beyond me.
