My M6 was repaired but then they shipped me a body casting that was so dented the film cartridge would not fit..... My M8 had to go in twice because there was not a single pixel in focus.... It appeared that the focal plane was twisted compared to the image plane. My M9 was fine until the glass cover plate fell off.... My Monochrom was fine, with a corroded glass cover plate.... These cameras have spent a total of over 18 months being repaired. You think pros can tolerate that kind of time without their working tools? Excuse me, pros get treated special, it is the amateur's repairs get treated like .... dirt. To be fair, I have never had a problem with lens repair..... ( mainly because I send them to DAG to be done) Not again. No more Leica bodies for me. Period. But with the Techart Leica AF adapter for the Sony A7 family plus Leica glass, why would I? Best glass, IBIS, AF, bodies ( technology) that I can afford to grow with.
