[Leica] R8/DMR back from Leica NJ

A few comments. ?Well the R8/DMR are back and they work together perfectly, 
the shutter no longer locks up. ?Everything is nice and shiny clean, and the 
power unit seems to fit tighter to the R8 body than it did when I attached 
it. ?Not sure what I was doing wrong, but I just could not get them to fit 
tightly at one end. ?Anyway I am happy with the repair/adjustment, 
especially since it was done at zero cost to me. ?;-)



The repair invoice is the usual vague description, not sure why they do not 
itemize the problem and work done. ?A comment on their communication within 
their repair department. ?I had called them last week on Wednesday to see 
when it would be returned, and was told it would be completed on the 20th, 
this coming Friday. ?Then last Friday I received a email from UPS giving me 
the notice that the item was in their system and would be here today. ?Now, 
I am glad I got it back much earlier, but you would think Leica would have 
better communication within their repair department, to give customers 
calling about their equipment better information.


Over all the R8/DMR was gone 3 1/2 weeks, a reasonable time in my opinion. 
?Now off to take some photos with it....
