Advertisement Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Hi NZDavid, Take a look here M9 reliability poll (for NZDavid) . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
davidschumaker Posted July 6, 2011 Share #162 Posted July 6, 2011 I had my M9 for three months when, after one shot, I had a shutter failure message on the screen. After consulting Leica and trying their recommendations it had to be sent back to NJ for repair. Recently it will stop shooting and act dead. Replacing the battery seems to get it going again. It has done this with twice with two newly and completely charged batteries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Pedley Posted July 6, 2011 Share #163 Posted July 6, 2011 - black frames every 50-200 shots from new (sent to Solms - no trouble found) - horizontal rangefinder misalignment at infinity (adjusted in Solms) 6 months old, now 7,000 shots no black frames (yet?) after latest FW upgrade (>200 shots since upgrade) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidschumaker Posted July 7, 2011 Share #164 Posted July 7, 2011 M9 shutter failed and had to be sent to NJ for repair 3 mo after purchase. Shuts off occasionally while using and won't turn back on. Battery over 50% charged. I have to change battery to get going again. I also had to send both of my new 8 and 8.2 to the factory for repair right after purchase.

Venkman Posted July 11, 2011 Share #169 Posted July 11, 2011 Almost two months now, so far minor hiccups: - pressing the play button while cam is still writing results 50% of the times in a lockup where the shot is lost and cam can only be reset by removing battery - shutter fires twice, althou not systematically reproduceable - leathering of black M9 losens lower left corner of the monitor/base plate border Dirk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tappan Posted July 11, 2011 Share #170 Posted July 11, 2011 4 months. 2 VERY minor problems. A.) Leatherette (grip) is peeling (from out of the box, really) to the bottom left of the LCD screen, near the "set" button. B.) One time, but only once, the shutter button was "sticky" and my one photo turned out to be 7 or 8. Mark Garfinkel Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadoaker Posted July 11, 2011 Share #172 Posted July 11, 2011 + at 12 months. Not sure how valid this poll is going to be, however, as people tend to be more motivated to respond to a poll if they have had a negative experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haich Posted July 11, 2011 Share #173 Posted July 11, 2011 3 months - SD card issues (on my third sd card now, hope this one works!) otherwise perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblutter Posted July 11, 2011 Share #174 Posted July 11, 2011 + 16 months just a little aggravated that a few older lenses understandably need calibration (am going to try on my own eventually - want collapsible Summi 50 with Sooky-M to be spot on) Camera is 100% Battery? eh...
