n8fyn Posted September 20, 2017 Share #41 Posted September 20, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) May be dust. Perhaps having it cleaned. The new sensor comes with new firmware. That's the best way to tell. It does have the new firmware, and i also have documentation. The black spots seem too dark to be dust, dont u think?

pop Posted September 20, 2017 Share #42 Posted September 20, 2017 ...The black spots seem too dark to be dust, dont u think? No, I don't think so. Dust blocks light from reaching the sensor and will, hence, leave dark spots. None of the specks on your picture that I could see looks anything like sensor corrosion. If you think one of the dark spots looks particularly suspicious, you should point it out to us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 28, 2017 Share #46 Posted September 28, 2017 My M9 was returned after about 8 weeks .The original sensor looked as if it had smallpox and had been replaced with a new sensor.Been given a CLA . The orginal black leather cover had been replaced but with leather of a slightly differant texture.The covering notice commented that the orginal leather was no longer available.No complaints. Still waiting for my Monocrom but they have been on holiday. Collected my Monocrom MK1 yesterday, after being away since mid June for sensor replacement. Considering Leica had the Summer holiday period in August I think they did well. A big thank you to all the guys at the Leica store Manchester who as always gave me fabulous service.
