The question was very useful to me since I now have a better idea of the problem and know what to expect. Looking again at some slides, the _new_ perspective gave me a better insight of what is going wrong. So what if I bought a lemon? This is my first Leica experience, and I am stuck with it. I already spent $180 to have the rangefinder fixed. That's OK. I will probably have to spend $200 to fix what has to be fixed. That's probably the cost of the camera. That's still OK. At least I won't spend my time trying to fix it with black tape, hoping that the problem will go away. Thanks to all that helped me out. - -Julio
