$500-$750 at a minimum, and I would just assume more, especially if any part replacement was needed, with anywhere from a 3-6 month turnaround; possibly much longer if a needed part needed was not on-hand, delaying the process even further.

I believe the cost of 6-bit coding a lens is now around $400. I'll be finding that out soon enough as soon as a late made in Germany 90mm f2.8 Tele Elmarit arrives and I have that work carried out.

When a digital M camera goes to Leica for service, their procedure is to do a full check and bring anything out of spec back to spec before they'll deliver it back, so whatever is needed, expect to have to pay for a full service.

I read a recent posting detailing just the cost of replacing the internal battery that retains all settings when the external battery is not loaded. With labor itwas $275 just to replace that, and that was 11 months ago. At 7-9 years old many, if not most bodies are going to start needing that.
