[Leica] Line a bad pixels in M8 images plus searching for a wedding dress

[shino at panix.com (Rei Shinozuka)]

Yes, I had that on my M8.  It manifests itself as a line which cuts the 
image across the short dimension.  It only happened to me at 1250 and 
higher asa settings.  I sent the camera back.

This is my example from 2007 ( the line goes through Kitty's thumb joint)
