[Leica] IMG Dachshund, and M8 sensor line M8

[shino at panix.com (Rei Shinozuka)]

  Peter, that looks just like a sensor problem.  Here's my example:

I put up this picture 3 years ago.  There's a white line going through 
the image near the base of Kitty's thumb (expand to see clearly).  This 
phenomenon occurred in ASAs greater than or equal to 1250.  I sent in 
the camera in 2007 and they fixed it.
