This thread was created by me from a couple of posts in another thread.

Quote:

If your M9 has suffered from the cracked sensor problem, please add the first 4 digits of your SN here, and a pattern may emerge.

If you can also confirm the month purchased, that might be helpful too.

Please keep this thread focused on only providing information relating to this problem. If it is to prove useful, then the thread should NOT have side-tracking posts, othwerwise anyone who wants to analyse the information has to sort out the wheat from the chaff. Thanks.

The sensor cracked from side to side

All right, the suggestion that we should collect the serial numbers of our cracking M9s is a constructive one. Gentlemen, let us synchronise our cameras. Mine is 3810xxx.

Before we go too far. May I suggest color (black/gray) as well, since batch serial numbering may differ.
