Here is the kicker: A Canon USA lens warranty is valid in Australia. They are not "Gray" market as long as the supplier is Canon authorised, which B&H are:
Canon offers an international warranty on non-digital Canon compact cameras, non-digital Canon SLR camera bodies, Canon lenses for all SLR cameras, Canon Speedlites and Canon photographic accessories only. If travelling overseas, the Customer may receive warranty service for those Products on these terms from members of the Canon Camera International Service Network. A list of those members is enclosed with the Product. The Customer must present this warranty card and the original proof of purchase to receive warranty service.
(from http://www.canon.com.au/extend/terms.html)
So why do we pay more again?  |
I wish Nikon worked the same way.
They will honour warranty on lenses, etc. (not bodies, though) if bought whuilst overseas not imported from a Nikon dealer OS.
