I need to send my Digi 2 in for sensor repair. It has been sitting in the camera bag doing nothing for a year. I'm such a slacker :)

 

May I please have the address info for the service depot in North America? Is there a particular contact person I should address it to? Is there a particular protocol I need to follow?

 

Please let me know as soon as you can, I'd like to send it off as soon as possible.

Shane,

 

The information is available on the Leica Camera website however, here goes:

 

Leica Camera Inc.

1 Pearl Court, Unit A

Allendale, NJ 07401-1610

USA

 

Tel: (800) 222-0188

 

When I sent my camera in, I sent it to the attention of Robert Fisk and also sent him an email advising of the camera's arrival. Never heard from him........ Repair took 4 months and I had no replies to my two email enquiries.

 

Reading this thread will enlighten you as to what may await you: ............

Hopefully, they now have a good supply of replacement sensors in stock.

 

Best,

 

Jan

I have heard that one may recieve the new Digi 3 for a price. Unfortunatley, the box was lost when I came back to North America. I have everything "but" the box.

 

... does anyone know if the same deal exists... even if I pay a little more for the absent box?

Shane,

 

I believe the deal was an exchange for a complete, boxed Digilux 2 plus about US$1,000 for the Digilux 3. It was offered to me and I declined - you can buy the D3's Panasonic equivalent for about US$1,200 and it just did not make sense to me. I had the D2 repaired - took 4 months and I am happy.

 

Best,

By the way, I sent in my Digilux 2 to New Jersey a few weeks ago for the sensor repair. I received a written "repair estimate" a week ago that itemized what they were going to do to repair it (about 5 items, if I remember correctly), that it would cost zero dollars (under extended warranty, but I included a printout from their news archives of their promise to repair the sensors and I asked politely if that would apply to mine also), and an estimate of 4-5 weeks to repair.

They didn't make me the Digilux 3 upgrade offer.

 

Edit: Just read the other thread where people were promised 4-5 weeks but had to wait 4 months.
