Subject: Re: Faulty frame counter

Mine resets to about 3 frames too low. More annoying is the tendency to
reset itself midroll at times. I have contacted Leica about this, thinking
that they would like to correct a problem that I have been told was common.
They were interested to fix it for $125.

Just one more reason why I prefer to used my olfer Leicas.

Cheers!
