Jim - I am probably the hardest on my Leica cameras of
anybody! From dropping them in rivers in Honduras to falling face
first on them breaking my nose. I had to send one M8 in when I
dropped it on a marble floor in India and the shutter failed. That
was covered by warranty, fixed, and returned in a week. My other M8
has never been sent in. I had more trouble with my film M6s than
I've ever had with my M8s.
