[Leica] M8 problem

[grduprey at mchsi.com (grduprey at mchsi.com)]

Bright lights at the edge of the frame will sometimes cause this to happen, 
this is documented, and is a characteristic of the sensor.  If this is what 
you are seeing then all you have to do is reframe the scene to move the 
light away from the edge of the frame.
