Eric,

That's a problem. I use the Leica battery as well. I shot 75 photos  
and even did some chimping with a fully charged battery on Saturday.  
The battery indicator showed full charge when I started and it still  
shows full charge. I have not seen the SD card error you describe but  
I use the reasonably priced 150X Transcend cards which give me better  
performance then Sandisk, which have failed for me in both the M8 and  
my EOS 1DS Mk II.
