Around the time the faults above were posted my Apo-Summicron-SL 75 failed during a lens firmware update - totally unresponsive. It was nothing to do with removing the lens without switching off. I had successfully updated all my other SL lenses at the same time. Leica repaired it, but it took the best part of 9 months. I was not happy - it has coloured my opinion of their service capability ever since. It has given no problems since then. IIRC it was under warranty, so I can't report a price. Basically I have just bought a 75mm APO lens for £1000 that shows lens communication error... It's so cheap that I wanted to try and fix myself with a firmware update and if not will send to Leica for a repair. Seemed too cheap not to try, even if its costs £500 its still £3000 less than new. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
