Here's an article on the tenth anniversary of the birth of the digital M camera. Leica is offering a couple of buyer incentives in conjunction with the anniversary; perhaps those who have wanted an M240, M-P or typ 262 but have found them out of reach in terms of price may now be able to acquire the object of their desire. The typ 262 entry set is particularly interesting...

Hello, I have a M-D (bought second-hand) and it's the perfect camera for me who started out with film back in the 90's. In any case, I don't shoot in continuous mode (single only) and for the first few years, I haven't had any issues but as of late, I've been having shutter lag issues. I would turn on the camera and have to depress the shutter and wait for the camera to "buffer" or whatever it is. There's a blinking red light on the back bottom right of the camera. I have to wait anywhere between 10-20 seconds. After the lag, I can take photos (as many as I'd like) but once I stop shooting and regardless if I turn the camera back off or leave it on, after maybe 10-20 mins, when I depress the shutter again, there's the same lag. I initially thought it had to do with the SD card so I bought new SD cards with very high read/write speeds. But it doesn't seem to help. I'm not sure what else it could be unless it's some sort of degradation and there's not a whole lot of information out there on M-D. Most shutter lag posts have been about Leica's with back screens that the user can change options, update software or shooting in C-mode (none of which applies to me). Help? Thanks.
