[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I just got my R8 back from Leica-New Jersey. They agreed the film scratches stemmed from the presssure plate located on the inside of the back door. They replaced the plate and cleaned and lubricated the body. They then ran a roll of film through it to determine no more scratching occurred and informed me none had. Nevertheless, I must do the same thing to be assured this is correct. So, I urge all R8 owners with a film scratching problem to send the body to Leica and get the plate replaced. Terry - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
