Hi all,
I just bought an M5 and the rangefinder patch looks like this:
There are black dots all over and a black semi-circle on the left and right side. And the outer edges of the patch (around two thirds of the patch in total) have a faint orange or brown haze.
Does anyone know what this is? It doesn't look like fungus to me.
Can this be fixed with a CLA or would I have to get the entire rangefinder replaced?
The focussing action seems fine to me (if a little bit faint), but I'm worried that this is a bad sign and that the rangefinder might become inoperable soon.
All the other rangefinder patches I've seen on other M bodies have been completely white. But this is my first M5 so I'd like to see what other people think before I contact the seller to ask for a refund.
Thank you in advance,
Eran.
