Does a DP3 Merrill purchased through Electric Art have a full U.S. fujifilm warranty?

Don't be fooled. A DP2M and a DP3M ordered from this source on 3/29/14 were both gray market imports - NO USA WARRANTY. Amazon was very sorry and was going to "investigate" but there are still answers here that tell potential buyers that these have USA warranties. Amazon took them back but what a hassle!

Yes, it comes with a one-year warranty. I had a "lens control error" with my camera. I had to pay to ship the camera to Fujifilm in NJ. They cover the costs of shipping it back. The repair took roughly a day, and I got my camera back the following day. When setting up the repair, I was put directly in touch with the technicians that worked on the camera. Aside from needing a repair and paying for one leg of the shipping, it was fast and easy experience.

Fine as long as you do not need warranty service. I plan to stick with Nikon, Canon, or Panasonic in the future from personal experience. The three with the highest reliability ratings by Consumer Reports are Panasonic, Canon and Sony. I will not buy another Fuji. Liked the camera but found their warranty and service unacceptable.

This is exactly what I'm trying to figure out. Whether it comes with a warranty card (I assume that's what we're talking about regarding the owners manual) or not seems irrelevent (after all, any hack on ebay can include the warranty card--that doesn't mean Nikon will honor it). What matters (to me, at least) is that Amazon is NOT on Nikon's list of authorized dealers (http://www.nikonusa.com/fileuploads/pdfs/Authorized_Dealers/Nikon_AuthDealers.pdf), and if you're not on there, you're gray market. At least that's what I think . . .

Daniel, I'm assuming that since Amazon sent this email for me to respond to you that you are purchasing the same camera from the same supplier as I did. In April 2013, I purchased the Canon EOS 6D SLR from The Imaging World. The camera I purchased did qualify for the USA Canon warranty. If you are purchasing exactly what I did, I hope you are as pleased with your purchase as I have been. Everything has been great! Best of luck to you.

Hi, I'm in Australia and I take it that the chances are that the questioner is in the USA. We have a different legal framework here concerning consumer protections that are more strict on the supplier than in the USA. All my Fuji cameras have been good and I've had about six of them over the last ten years so I don't worry about warranty cards, I flick them in the bin. having said that I can't remember seeing a warranty card in the box either but I'm trying to remember back nearly two years. If you have real concerns I'd contact Fuji in your country but I think with a few small inconveniences this camera is a real good one to have. I've taken some of my best shots with this camera. Its versatility is really good. Many programmes and facilities to help you take your best shots. It has a lot in it and may take you a while to come to grips with all the goodies in this camera. Happy shooting with your new camera.

I saw no implied warranty of any type. I think that Amazon has a 30 day return policy. Just to let you know, I have found this to be an excellent brush in all aspects, I spent a great deal of time evaluating different Silvertip brushes and even returned some to Amazon after I opened the box-poor quality. This Parker is of exceptional quality, at a great price, with a full head of beautiful Silvertip hair that really holds the water for excellent lather. I would recommend that you own one, as I am very happy that have it in my hand at every shave.

I believe so, I thought it had the Nikon USA warranty, which I believe is covered by Nikon in any location.

I read the entire plan, decided it had too many loopholes, and returned it for an actual Nikon plan that Amazon offered. I am sorry, but I can't remember if shipping was part of this less-than-perfect warranty plan.

Hi I purchase this camera this spring. I looked at the book and the card etc. The camera was not manufactured here in the US but in the Philippines and it is warrant by Pentax Ricoh Imaging Co LTD in Japan. They have a division 633 17th St, Suite 2600, Denver Colorado, 80202 In the manual page 327 states the Warranty policy of 12 months any repairs to be returned to the dealer or manufacturer in your country. So If you buy it in the US it will be fixed in the US. That is my understanding . Their number is 800-877-0155. You could call and ask for more information. Love the camera I also bought a couple of pentax lens, one directly from them. Hi I purchase this camera this spring.

Yes, on their web-site they say they are authorized Canon dealer, and there is US/Canada warranty card inside

I had to return the bundle I purchased from this vendor. It does come with all it shows, but it is a grey market camera which is NOT advertised. This means the camera was not manufactured to be purchased in the United States. The one I received was intended to be purchased by consumers in Europe. What this means to you is that you will get a camera for less money that Nikon will NOT warranty. Let me repeat this... if anything goes wrong with the camera or Nikon lenses, no one will touch them; you are on your own. I repurchased a similar kit on Amazon through Adorama. They had the best price for a kit that comes with all US warranties. Happy shopping.

Should be the same model camera, but the warranty may be effected should you have any issues with the camera.As US official camera will be serviced by Fuji US under warranty - an import model may not get free warranty service if it needs repair.

Yes, providing you have access to a Fujifilm Center or certified Fujifilm merchant.

Amazon is an Authorized Canon dealer. As such I do not believe they sell the "grey" market cameras. Both of the 60D bodies I purchased from Amazon (about 1 year apart) were brand new U.S.A. models with the full U.S.A. warranty. These were purchases from Amazon, not a 3rd party company selling through Amazon.

Also, our personal experience has been that less than reputable (read: SCAM) dealers will sell you the gray market camera and then tell you that it doesn't include accessories such as a battery and battery charger, which we all know comes with any legit camera. Best to spend the extra money and buy from an authorized dealer through authorized channels and have some peace of mind so that if it ever needs service, it will be covered under Nikon USA warranty. We bought our D90 direct from Amazon.com (not a seller through Amazon marketplace) and have been very happy with it. I cannot speak for this particular vendor, though.

Don't know about that. I have heard that some direct purchases from Japan do not have a full warranty like the U.S. sourced products. It has not been an issue for me but it is something to think about. If you go with a U.S. reseller like B&H you will have full coverage.
