Is this a normal shutter noise? Or just a serious problem

I've heard the DPReview recorded noise for the M8 shutter release but I think the sound of my brand new M8 seems nothing but ..... worst shutter noise. Please note the strange delayed (sort of double) metallic shot at 1/125.

 

It's just the same noise of your jewel or something very different?

 

Here you'll find the noise recording:

Thank you all for help.

Hi Roberto,

 

I did not listen to the sound that DPReview posted, however the sound of your M8 sounds just like mine too. I seem to recall from users who have had their M8's for quite some time, that the shutter sound changed after the upgrade to 1.092 firmware. That would explain as to why the older recording sounds different.

Great note Andit!

It does make sense because when I was at my Leica shop taking the first shots I didn't noticed this strange behaviour. And when I came home and applied Firmware update 1.092 the noise seemed different and strange.

 

So the Firmware update has changed also the way our beautiful creature shut her eyes?

Seems completely normal 1.092 shutter noise to me. And indeed, the dpreview recording makes me remember the sound before the firmware update (1.09)

 

Best,
