The repair department will take your camera and send it to Leica for you. I find this the best way to send something to Leica in NJ. Also because it is still under warranty you should have it cleaned and checked too. I know that you have an M6 but I would make that suggestion to all R8 shooters because there have been upgrades in the electronics that your R8 may benefit from. Good shooting!
