If it's a direct question of how it functions "while working " that's fine. But as you say, "telling the LUG it's broke" means diddly, no one here can fix it. Just send it to the nearest Leica service location or return to dealer where purchased have them look after it and if they refuse..... get your money back! Like KISS works for all kinds of things, not just picture taking. And yes I have two R8's with motor drives and they both work just fine thank you. ted http://www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant
