M8 sensor

My M8 sensor has developed one burned pixel, forcing me to correction work on every pic shot in low light or with a strong source in front of me.

 

Intended to send it back : my Leica dealer informs me he has sent 2 other M8 this year, one in february, the other one in april. None is back yet.

 

Is there a third party capable to change a sensor (UK, NL, Germany) ?

Money is not a problem : repair is covered by my professional insurance.

They don't change the sensor unless there are many stuck pixels, They do a 'mapping' where the camera compensates for the stuck pixels.

As far as I know only Leica can do this.

If your a PRO get in contact with Leica Professionel Service where the turn around time is quick. Otherwise contact Leica Customer Service directly.

Rather unclear. Pro seems only related to outside EU.

Actually, it says "pro forma invoice" which is not the same as "pro". I presume you have to show an invoice when "exporting" or "importing" expensive goods for repairs to and from the EU. A pro forma invoice would formally satisfy the requirement without any actual content.

Stupid me. I didn't learn to read at school, dropped off too early (I was 3). :D
