Phil,
 
You know, I only had trouble out of one R4 and it was a relatively early one. 
I sent it back to Leica on three different occasions for passport warranty 
service and they finally "jacked-up the base plate and put a new camera on it! 
I 
knew this because I put some small marks inside with a magic marker and they 
were gone when I got the body back the last time. After that it worked 
flawlessly until I loaned it to my brother-in-law who took it on a cruise to 
Bermuda. 
He dropped it overboard in the Atlantic while on a sightseeing junket and it 
went down to Davey Jones's locker, never to be seen again. Un fortunately, it 
had a 180, 3.4 APO attached to it at the time. 
 
He replaced it with an R5 & a 180, 3.4 APO so all was not lost. The R5 is 
still an excellent picture taker.
