  1. Hello I have the UK, EU, car adapters for the S charger in the original box. I no longer have the charger so these are of no use. If anyone wants them please message me or reply to this thread. I'll ship them to you if you PayPal me the postage. Thanks.
  2. aspect ratio gives it away
  3. More distantly-focused photos would be appreciated to let people evaluate corner performance in worse scenarios.
  4. The only people I know who actually offer this service are an adventurous and not always successful artisanal shop in China. They sell repaired CCD S bodies on the Chinese internet and the reviews are mixed. I was in touch with Maxmax.com about repairing a corroded S sensor or turning it monochrome. They then went and bought an S2 but I believe haven’t really investigated repairing it. I doubt the S the market is big enough for them to make the investment. Perhaps if enough people inquire about it it will start to make business sense. Oh and Leica replaces sensors too.
  5. My old S2’s sensor cover glass also cracked, without the camera having been dropped or abused. Best I could tell the reason was it was just pressed up against other gear in a padded lowepro backpack. When I got home somehow all four corners of the glass had cracked.
  6. Hi Stuart, have you used the S3 for videography at all? Are the rolling shutter and pixel binning artifacts noticeable like on the S007 (or even worse)? Thank you.
  7. Yes they tried to make him buy a whole new adapter claiming no spare part available
  8. If you have a bunch of R lenses already why not rent the cheapo plastic fantastic 50r first to test the R lenses on it just to see if you like the look? I have very fond memories of Mandler R lenses. 100s is a much better video camera than the s3, if that’s relevant to you. I’d agree that a used s 007 is much better bargain than the s3. In two years the s3 will lose half its value just like its predecessors. You can get a 007 for $5k or so.
  9. Sorry to hear this. Yet another story of Leica milking the dwindling S user base.
  10. Camera West listed another S 006 for $999 a few months ago. May have been the same one.
