You need to be a member to see the pictures. The guy that posted them has disassembled one of his M8's previously and posted every detail before. Fascinating. Tina's calibrated bump on the hand is sensible. I'm not so keen on her face-plant on the rocks technique ;-) Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/e http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/gh/ Maike Harbets speaks on the S2. .... So we will drop down this technology to our other systems. Our priority is to modernise the R system which will be in the end an R10, definitely. -----Original Message----- Subject: Re: [Leica] Framelines Tina, I bow down to you from humid Hawaii. A few knocks against my hand and voila, all is well. Thank you! I figured since it's under warranty and going in for an upgrade, a little delicate banging couldn't hurt. And it apparently didn't. So thanks very much again; I owe you a Mai-tai :-) Bob Bob Adler Palo Alto, CA rgacpa@yahoo.com http://www.raflexions.com ----- Original Message ---- From: Tina Manley <images@comporium.net> To: Leica Users Group <lug@leica-users.org> Sent: Saturday, November 1, 2008 4:26:37 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Framelines At 07:20 PM 11/1/2008, you wrote: >I did put a 135 on there.

I'd keep messing with the lever to see if you can get it unstuck. Have you had it in a humid or dusty place? I'd suggest banging it on your hand several times but other people might have a heart attack at that suggestion! Good luck. Tina Tina Manley www.tinamanley.com
