One of the problems it had was a crack in the plastic part of the take up spool. It had a few other problems and I sent it back to Leica Camera USA to have them fix it. The plastic part of the take up spool was replaced. And a few rolls of film later it had a crack in it again. Question 1) Am I doing something wrong to cause this crack? Question 2) Should I bother to have it replaced again or try and fix it myself with some glue? Question 3) When you first turn it on the meter does not respond right away. I either have to aim it at a bright light or move the shutter speed dial to make the meter turn on. Is this normal? Question 4) I have the 40mm F2 and 90 mm F4. How compatible are these lenses with a Leica M6 body?
