Not the electronics, the internal switch works fine, the electronic component is fully operational. However the external switch housing just came detached in my hand, no falls or shocks. The external switch mechanism doesn't connect to the rectangular, silver internal switch, although the electronics seem fine.
Was anyone aware the protruding switch housing could simply come off? It must have caught on something that weakened it.
I get the feeling my wallet will hurt despite insurance.
To tell the truth, it is a bit worrying that the electronic component seems to simply be glued on to the mechanical outside switch and housing. One would expect slightly stronger construction from an L lens. However, the design is fairly old IIRC.
