jmlynek Posted July 13, 2018 Share #1 Posted July 13, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hello All, It seems my lovely 10 year old Leica CM has come down with an issue. The aperture blades are frozen and do not change when the shutter is fired. I have re-booted the camera several times by removing the battery and it seems to affect the aperture blades but not consistently. In effect, the camera is useless. Does anyone know if Leica US or Germany will repair this or if there are any other options? Thank you all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the crazy prices asked for used ones it would be still be economically sensible to have it repaired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
