This R8 came with the DMR as a freebie because its shutter blades were tangled. After untangling the shutter I found that aside from a minor ding on one shutter blade the camera worked perfectly so I used it for a year and a half until the DMR developed its boot-up problem. I told Leica service that the shutter ding wasn't causing any problems but please check the camera otherwise and service as needed. Repair estimate for the R8: US$0.00 I ? my DMR Doug Herr Birdman of Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com
