Hi guys, I'm new here, my first post.

I have recently bought a Leica CL, my first rangefinder. How robust is the rangefinder to vibrations in normal use?
I haven't had the courage to take the camera on the motorbike (in the topcase), fearing the vibrations might knock it out of alignment.

What are your experiences with it?

Cheers,
Andrei

No it should easily withstand a ride on the motor. Just don't drop it.
And the CL is really easy to align yourself.

I've given my CL some decent knocks with no problems. I suspect it as as robust as any other Leica. Remember it is a Leica design.
