[Leica] Leica M9 CCD problem

[Akhil Lal]

Hi All,

Yet another post on the M9 CCD problem.

 I sent in my M9 for repair just before the deadline and got an email
stating that  the sensor glass would be replaced only. Is this the standard
remedy for this problem? Based on reports on the web I was under the
impression that the entire sensor would be replaced not just the glass
cover- I assume this is why Leica ask for ca. 1000 euros after the August
15th  deadline.

I would very much appreciated hearing from luggers who have had the CCD
on their M9s repaired. Please post the scope of your repair: glass only
entire CCD or...?

Thanks in advance.

BTW, did all Luggers sending in their M9s get the upgrade to M240 option?

Regards,
Akhil
