Hi-
Adding to what David and Elliot have written:
This note was posted in the Digital Forum of the Leica Camera Users
Forum early today:
"Leica M8 Issues
Dear Friends of Leica,
Customer feedback to us following the start of shipment of the LEICA
M8 points to a performance under certain conditions that does not
meet the expectations in the Leica brand. Our technical and
engineering teams have isolated the source of these concerns and have
identified definitive solutions. Over the next two weeks we will
communicate a plan to further assure you of your investment in the
LEICA M8.
We hope for your understanding and support. Please accept that I will
not be able to answer all messages in the forum personally.
Kind regards
Leica Camera AG
Stefan Daniel
Product Management"
Leica has gotten "the message."
From other reports on the web, it seems that the banding, purple and
IR anomalies occur only under low light conditions, when
photographing certain colors, and using some lenses, so they are
confined to a specific photographic regime and do not appear
universally when using the M8.
FYI, I have taken about 1400 frames since I got my DMR nine months I
ago and I have never noticed any of these anomalies, and I don't have
an M8, so I can't add anything more.
Perhaps (tongue in cheek) I should stop taking so many daylight and
flash pictures!
As ever,
Bill
