I applaud Leica. 1) the "fix" to the banding issue sounds like a hardware fix. However, it could be a firmware fix that is buried too deeply to be a field retrofit. Or it could be sensor specific, and needs to be tweaked for each sensor. Anyway, it is a responsible position.... we know and acknowledge the problem, we have a fix, we have a solution, and we will make sure our customers are taken care of. 2) Looks like no bending on the IR filter.... I would like to see it incorporated into the sensor glass plate... looks like Solms disagrees ( I will allow that I do not understand the complete complexities of this issue, and a sensor cover fix may not be possible.. notice I said possible, not practical....).... At least all you guys and gals will get 2 filters... best pick wisely.....! 3) 30% Discount on a new lens is nice, 30% off what you already paid for an M8 would be nicer.....( or its equivalent.... ) Very responsible......
