    Susanne replied to the topic Leica Q-P repeated freezing/crashing issues!! in the forum General Leica Discussion 6 years, 1 month ago

It was without a scratch when I returned it for checkup to Leica. Now they want to give me an offert of the cost of that damage. I didn't damage it. 118 exposures…[Read more]
