I always do. Then you get lots of interesting mail. Don't give your internet address though.

Sarge :shock:

Without an email address, if there is a recall you wouldn't know. But recalls are rare.

A lot of companies aren't happy with the money they made on your purchase, they want to sell your info.

I wonder what would happen if you entered THEIR email address in that field???????

I always fill out mine and then register it online. Put the date that I registered it on the card as well. Don't generally complete the survey questions on the card or online.
I put my copy of the card in with the rest of the printed material that I got with the item.

Got no time for no stinking registration cards --- too busy shooting and editing images! :P

Yes! It proves that you are the owner and entitled to rights.
I have created an email address at Yahoo which I use especially for "signing up" for things like that. They have a terrific spam filter. Click on the Spam button and you'll never see another message from that source again.

I register on line now and then. I think the camera is most important for firm ware updates and some software updates. I live in Ft Lauderdale. Where in South Florida are you?

I once attempted to get warranty service on an emergency battery supply unit. They refused as they said I had not submitted a registration card. Peg my Pardon, "I said," I registered via the internet as an option you gave. The reply was the same, you didn't submit a registration card. With this outfit one would have to send the card registered mail.
