    International Warranties for Canon camer bodies

    I've a visitor from South Africa who is interested in buying a Canon camera body. I told him to check out Stanley Street but he said all dealers there (which, according to word of mouth, are those where the pros buy from) had only local warranties for the bodies and international only for the lenses.

    Does anyone know where to buy Canon SLRs with a warranty that is valid internationally (or at least in .za?)

    Use a chain as opposed to an independant like those in Stanley Street.

    Fortress, Broadway. Gome etc etc will have them and should come with an International warranty.

    You'll pay more obviously but if you want an International warranty as opposed to a local one then you don't have much choice.

    You can get full international warranty from Tin Cheung in TST or Wing Shing/Man Shing in Mong Kok.
    Any of these are likely to as cheap or cheaper than Stanley St vendors.
