    Re: Fake Britain tonight, covered fake Canon Cameras

    Just watched it all, the first two were actually grey imports so are not fakes even though they kept plugging them as that.... Ohhhh and who was the company in the past responsible for "fake" grey import Canons?..... Ahhh yes, Canon themselves. Canon HK was doing it in the past to hide the fact from Canon Japan that they were supplying the grey market as they are not supposed to sell into each other's markets I seem to remember

    An issue has currently arisen and is being investigated by Canon. In the UK a person purchased a Canon 5DIII from a grey market selling out of Hong Kong. When the camera had an operational issue, they contacted the seller and were advised to take their camera to Canon UK for service. This is where the issues began. Canon UK contacted the customer and advised they would not fix the camera as the serial number on the camera was not valid, the serial number plate was counterfeit. Over the past


    Not sure about the compact though.

    End of the day if you buy a grey you accept the Canon warranty is void but they often come with their own warranties and there is nothing to prevent it being repaired as a grey if you pay, my 1DX has been into Canon for sensor cleaning etc no problem, mind you I checked the exif serial and body one when I bought it.

      I watched this programme. I am sure that people who bought items via Hedw (hope I got the name right) are very happy as they also get a 3 year UK warranty.
