Hey LUGers,

It is good to see you all are still kicking.  I used to be an active member 
more than 10 years ago, but unsubscribed after I had to sell my Leica and 
start working with Canon as I?m a photojournalist based in Egypt and needed 
to transmit fast ( www.DavidDegner.com ).

A few months ago I finally bought a 240 and 35/2.  I love them and use them 
on an almost daily basis.

But I have one complaint that the lens shade is constantly falling off.

This video explains it all:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsdPgksr2go

Usually it is when I?m walking or getting in and out of chairs/taxis.  Does 
it only happen to me?

I have to admit Leica service has been great, they replaced the lens, 
thinking the lens might be faulty, they even gave me multiple new lens 
shades, but the new lens and lens hoods have the same problem.

Best,
David Degner
