Hi guys, so I had my "reporter edition" of M10-P sent in, which had freezing issue, and Leica replaced the old CMOS with a whole new one. So far, no freezing, however, I run into 2 new "issues" if they really are. 1st one: Sometimes when I press the "Play" button to view the photos, a brief "loading" appears on the screen for like less than 1 second. I didn't do that right after pressing the shutter, even when I was in the menu screen, and that happened, but not very often. 2nd one: Sometimes when I press buttons (like Play or Menu), and there is no response, so I had to press them again, and this is not very often either. I don't remember that I ever had those 2 issues before I sent my M10-P in. I wonder if it has something to do with the very low battery? Have you guys encountered same things on your M10 or M10-P? Are they really issues?

I bought my M8 around a half a year ago. It was my second M mount camera (The first one was R-D1s). I enjoyed this camera very much, but several days ago i faced the first problem with this camera. Suddenly, shutter button and on/off lever became a bit off. I mean that on/off lever became much more tight and expousure lock position moved a way futher than it was before. A few dozens of millimeters behind shutter release itself. It became a common situation, when i want to lock my exposure, but because of this problem i occasionally took a photo. i found some old topics on similar issues, but photos with dismount of shutter button were unavalible. Has anyone faced the same or similar problem? What is the key to solve this problem? Can it be done at home by only myself?

So over the weekend a few drops of red bull were spilled on the top plate of my M2 (don't ask) - mainly on the right hand side, so the frame counter and shutter button were hit. The day after I noticed that the aforementioned parts felt sticky - the shutter button particularly was returning to it's normal position more slowy after being depressed. I didn't have any isopropyl alcohol on hand since it seems to be impossible to find in the UK, so I put a drop or two of denatured ethyl alcohol (surgical spirit, as it is called here) into the shutter button, then began to depress it repeatedly. This process was repeated 2 or 3 times. It seems to have worked very well and the camera feels normal again, but I am scared that ethyl alcohol might have adverse effects on the camera. From what I've read, isopropyl alcohol (if anything) is what should be used, and I've even read that ethanol can react with brass to cause oxidation. Is this something that I should be worried about, or am I overreacting? -
I have a new M10-P and have installed latest firmware, 12/2018, with fast Lexar 128GB 1000x memory card. The other night I went out to photo sunset, but the MENU button would not work, managed some pix, removed battery, switched on and off a few times, finally all OK. I have NEVER had an unreliable Leica (or Nikon), and for $8000. Tonight I went to make a picture and the LIVE button wouldn't work, nor the MENU button, and the display of ISO was weak and dim (fresh battery). In a few minutes all working OK. Has anyone else had similar troubles with M10 or M10-P? My Leica Q and digital M never gave me a bit of trouble.
