Lens was Leica USA, and I was in the USA at the time) got a ding, they had to send it back to Germany for repair as they said they couldn't do it. The cost of the repair was about the same as a new lens. I sent it to an independent repair person who repaired it quite successfully for $185.00 as I recall. tim - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
