My thought (based on the link I gave you) was that the On-Line manual might have been recently updated to explain this. Or not......... LOL!

Well that icon looks like a card, but the manual uses [-E-] — whatever!.

Set up menu (Wrench)
"Selecting Enable release allows the shutter to be released when no memory card is inserted, although no pictures will be recorded (they will however be displayed in demo mode). If Release locked is selected, the shutter-release button is only enabled when a memory card is inserted in the camera."

Then the manual is wrong. That icon Randy mentioned is displayed on my Z6 when there is no memory card. When I put the memory card in, that icon disappears.

By the way, Thom Hogan's Guide is also wrong; it says the indicator is -E-. Hogan's team probably relied on the manual's information without checking its accuracy.

Guess what? The red square shows on mine too. Who'd have thunk that? After all I do live in Moscow

That red icon is 'no card' on back LCD. '-E-' is no card indicator on top LCD. Manual and Them are not completely wrong.

It's so like Randy to teach us something new!

He didn't teach me anything new, but that's only because I almost always turn on my camera forgetting that the memory card isn't in it.
