As you know, I'm in retail and there's no skin left on my hands in winter from washing them so frequently. I can't afford to be sick either. Men are generally horrible patients anyway. I'm the worst! Dave explained to me that your lens ought to have been returned to the repair department and that it is they who would have decided to replace rather than adjust or repair it. The dealer needs to contact them with details and insist that it be replaced from stock NOW. Please let me know when Dave gets back to you. I've a soft spot for Dave because he managed to get my first M7 replaced in about 45 minutes when it displayed an obvious DX-coding defect. They really ARE helpful there to people who are reasonable and polite. I was leaving on a trip the next day...
