--I'm also getting occasional black-and-red zebra stripes and my scroll wheel acts in reverse about 30% of the time when reviewing shots (--

Interesting, I was up in the Alps (often above 2500m) the last month and had occasional black and white stripes. Never had it elsewhere. Must be the other environment. LOL.

Am on my third M8. Models one and two had various problems including SDS, lines across LCD, and erratic dial when scrolling etc.

My third M8 is exactly the same straight out of the box!!!

I am so p****d off.

But what really gets me is Leica's appalling lack of customer care. When i reported these issues i was advised that i was in a minority as no or hardly any reports of faults/defects etc had been reported, and did i get a "i'm sorry to hear".....

No, i think i'll offload my equipment and use the money to buy something that works. After all a camera that provides an image - even if it is not as good as leica glass etc - is still a camera that does.

Really sorry others have had problems, but I though I should report I have 2 M8s, and (touching wood - please camera gods don't hear this) have never had a problem, and get such good images. My Canon DSLRs and glass are languishing unused. Doing a theatre shoot in Poland next week so will dig out the long stuff and the 5D + 1D2, but all the on-set stuff will be M8. On to Latvia for documentary - it'll all be M8.:)
