M8.2 shutter not recocking

[Dominum]

My m8.2 suddenly made this weird sound while shooting street today.

I didn't drop it or anything :bang:

The video below shoes the exact same problem that i have.

Should i send it to Solms or a local cleaning will do?

That's got to be unnerving. I've read elsewhere that it's a symptom of a dirty shutter.

Has your M8 had its share of dust/dirt? How do you usually store it?

ah.. it hasn't been anywhere dirty or dusty at all! in fact, its been sitting around in my dry cabinet for awhile now.. OH well I just sent it to solms.

Just an update, got my camera back from Leica and they did all the repairs for free even though it's out of warranty. Great customer service!
