All she would tell me was that my camera needed a new sensor. When I asked to speak to the technician, she said customers don’t get to speak to technicians. When I made reference to an upgrade to an M 240, she said that since a camera store sent it in, I had to speak to the camera store!!!.

He wondered why they couldn’t put a card in the camera and take a picture themselves. So, he promised to make inquiries of Leica as to a deal, and would phone me, probably tomorrow. To my surprise, he phoned me this afternoon with the info. a) I can get an upgrade to an MP for around $350 (I don’t remember the exact price, because I didn’t care) or b) an upgrade to an M 240 for $3000. I decided this afternoon to accept that offer, and will phone K&S tomorrow morning. I’ll just consider it my 93d birthday present.
