non officiel mais presque, l'annonce de Leica:
1. The "Banding" and "Mirror/Ghost" effects have been thoroughly investigated and the root cause has been identified and eliminated. The remedy will enable every M8 to meet and exceed Leica performance standards. All customers that have purchased and taken delivery of an M8 will be entitled to an upgrade performed in Solms, free of charge. Specific measures will be taken to enhance customer loyalty that will be outlined in detail in the memo's issued Monday. In summary, every one of these customers will be entitled to purchase a new M lens at a 30% discount directly from the factory in Solms.
2. The above average sensitivity for infrared light can be compensated by using an IR filter. Leica will make available two free IR filters of any size (there are 7 filter sizes for the current M lenses) for M8 purchasers. I am sure the logistics of this is in the memo's but I have not read all 25 pages. Delivery of these free of charge IR filters will commence in February, 2007.

C'est quand même ralant qu'il faille attendre février (si ils sont pas en retard) pour avoir les filtres !! Donc jusqu'à février on verra la vie en violet... De plus acheter un filtre coûte environ 150 euros
Par contre pour ceux qui l'ont achetés et doivent le renvoyer, c'est un beau geste que d'offrir 30% de remise !
