mustafasoleiman Posted January 21, 2017 Share #1 Posted January 21, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Does the m10 come with the portfolio as the m240 did? Alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted January 21, 2017 Posted January 21, 2017 Hi mustafasoleiman, Take a look here Portfolio UK. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
chris_tribble Posted January 22, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 22, 2017 Alex, I think you mean PASSPORT. Afraid I don't know if it does or not as yet, though I would imagine it does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted January 22, 2017 Share #3 Posted January 22, 2017 The SL did not come with Passport - IIRC it ended before that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wattsy Posted January 22, 2017 Share #4 Posted January 22, 2017 Yes, I think the scheme is discontinued. In truth, unless you churn through gear very frequently (something I have done in the past, perhaps more than I'd quite like to admit to now) the discontinuation of the scheme is not a great practical loss. The scheme had already been reduced to one year so the protection offered by the passport was very limited in relation to the working life of the gear. Better IMO to arrange your own insurance than pay for it indirectly in the price of the products (though I doubt that whatever savings Leica will make are going to be passed on to the customer in any meaningful sense). However, I think the scheme did provide a feeling of extra quality about Leica's products (a little something extra that other manufacturers weren't offering) that gave the buyer a warm fuzzy feeling that perhaps Leica shouldn't have underestimated.

scott kirkpatrick Posted January 22, 2017 Share #5 Posted January 22, 2017 Passport warranty means different things in different countries. In the US it was three years, and replacement or repair without question. It applied to lenses, and I think not to camera bodies. I had to exercise it on my Elmarit-asph M, purchased when the M8 was new. I think I got such a warranty only a few years ago when I purchased a Summilux-asph-FLE 35-M. There are multiple sorts of warranties currently offered, 1 year (refurbished) 2 year (new), etc. scott Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
viramati Posted January 22, 2017 Share #6 Posted January 22, 2017 In my case it came in real handy when my M9 feel out of my bag onto a concrete surface causing serious damage and all was repaired at no cost. Unfortunately it has been discontinued on all Leica models Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustafasoleiman Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share #8 Posted January 22, 2017 Ah yes sorry... I meant the PASSPORT that came with my M240 and lenses... Thank you for clearing this up, I did not know it had been discontinued. Alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
