I want to confirm that this is a brand new lens, never used. I also want to ask how the warranty is handled for defects?

This is a new lense I got. As far as the warranty I don't have an answer for that. My lense has been working perfect.

For me it was brand new when I received it, nicely packaged. There were no defects and mine works perfectly fine, so I cannot help with the warranty part...

Yes, this one is a new lens and the seller is very courteous and responsive. Regarding warranty, I thankfully haven't had a situation to get into those conversations.

This is one of the best lenses I own. Of course it is brand new. I haven't any problem yet so I can't answer about warranty handling,

I called Panasonic America about the warranty on an item purchased in Japan and they responded that the warranty is world wide. If the lens fails duirng the warranty period, the item will be serviced in the USA. By the way, the image quality of photos taken on my Olympus WM-5 using this lens is very high. It is an excellent lens.

The answer is not straight forward but here you go If the lens is new and bought through a dealer then the warranty is the 4 year Nikon Warranty if it's used or new but through a non Nikon dealer then no I hope I helped

I did not purchase this as a new lens... It was re-maufactured and I am not sure what the warranty was. But it works great! Sorry...

Greetings,If you buy the Lens Refurbished Directly from Canon they give you warranty with it. However, we can't guarantee that the warranty will be honor if the refurbished item is bought outside from Canon . On the other hand, we are a canon authorized dealer and all our lenses are brand new, in case you are asking about one of our listing.Hope this help.Best,H and B Digital Team

The Nikkor lens is new (not refurbished), as well as the other items in the kit. It comes with the standard Nikon warranty.

I didn't know. The lens I brought was used and had fungus on the inside. You can always return the item if it doesn't work.

Yes, if this lens is bought new and is not "grey market". Grey market meaning that if this lens was originally sold in Europe and it found its way into the USA or to any other country then no it will not get the warranty.

My best guess is that it's a grey market lens. Several of those companies sell them at very low prices. Be careful as they don't have US warranties. A quick google of the business name will usually tell you what you need. A good price just as long as you never need service. If you do, you're screwed.

Truthfully there is no way to know. If I ordered a $2,000 lens and the package was even slightly bent, I'd ask for a replacement. When spending that much money on a lens, it has to be absolutely perfect!

Well, that's a moot point. I ordered it from amazon.com and took delivery in the London (UK) two days later. Amazon was the only supplier who could guarantee delivery during the 5 days I was in the UK. A couple of days later, I looked at the paperwork that came with the lens. It said something to the effect that the warranty was only good for the US. I know that Nikon guarantees its products worldwide for a year. I called Nikon (UK) and they verified this verbally and in writing. Nikon (US) had other ideas and told me that it wasn't Nikon that needed to honor the warranty but Amazon as the retailer. Amazon said "No way" and suggested that if I wasn't happy I could return the lens to the US (at my expense with a refund promised for shipping expenses) . The ping-pong continued for another day and in the end, Amazon said that the invoice from them was proof of purchase and that this essentially covers the warranty worldwide. In my case, the whole point of the exercise was that I had a project the following week and needed the lens so I took the risk and left it at that. I wouldn't expect a major problem with a lens during the first year anyhow and my other Nikkor lenses have been great. If needs be, we'll see what happens - and if really needs be and the warranty isn't honored, then I'll have to fork up! So, really, it's up to you to decide what you want to do. I had already made up my mind that I wanted it by a certain date and was willing to take whatever risk might be involved. I hope that this helps you.

Hi I'm just wondering. Does this lens come with a warranty if I buy it off Amazon? Sorry, am new here.

Best to ask Wolf Camera. As for warranty, I have several Sony lenses and several Sony cameras. Never had to use a warranty. Not that it can't happen.

Not on either the surface of the lens (back or front), nor anyplace inside the lens. Check to see if there is anything on the surface, although even if there was it should be out of focus. Are you seeing this through the viewfinder of your camera (or LCD display), or when you look through the lens (detached from the camera)? If you do not see it with another lens on the LCD display, then the problem is with this new lens. If you do see it with other lenses, then possibly dirt on the camera's sensor. In either case, try to exchange the product.

Im pretty sure there was a warranty card in the box. Its a really great lens for the the money. The bokeh and dof is excellent

It is gray market and you are not able to get a warranty in the US. I sent an email to Circuit Street (the seller) to confirm and they verified it is an import. Unfortunately for me I had purchased already since I saw zero mention of that in the actual listing, whereas every other gray market/import listing on Amazon calls that out. Incredibly deceptive, and now I need to wait 1-2 weeks while Amazon processes my cancelled order and gives me my Amazon credit back before I can go and purchase a legit lens from another seller.
