According to other forum users who have had the same problem, it is not a failure on the sensor, it is a problem THAT CAN HAPPEN on one of the circuit boards. This problem DOES NOT AFFECT ALL camera's but does show up on some models in the course of time.
If you do a search on Vertical Line here in the forum, you will find quite a bit of discussion about it. My M8 is in Solms at the moment to have this issue sorted out. Just got an email from them this morning that they have received it.
Hope this helps you a bit.

Andreas has it exactly right. I had an M8 that worked fine for months and suddenly developed this problem. Sent it to New Jersey where they replaced the circuit board. It took a while to get the camera back, but it's working fine now. But it is a pain in the neck to have it happen, isn't it? JB
