Well no one has once said they are either cheap rip offs or similar or scams, so that is a good thing, that is what I was concerned about, or maybe they wrre selling 'factory seconds' that failed QC.
I have bought numerous cameras over the years, and never had an warranty claims, so I feel not having a local warrantyand saving over £1000 is worth it.
Any camera damage I have had in the past had been accidental, and covered under my own insurance policy any how
Good luck, I kinda feel the same way they should be the same product, it is not like Canon makes different product for different markets the warranty thing is to protect the importer..
