I've purchased from both and they're pretty much on par in my opinion.

I've only used Digitalrev and found them to be a very good retailer.
Easy to deal with, they keep you informed, fair price, fast delivery.

I've also purchased from both and never had a problem with either, my last few purchases have been from Panamoz as I got 3 years warranty on my lenses plus they where cheaper from Panamoz.

I'm just waiting for them to start using BACS again then I can get 3% discount on my order.

Based upon posts on here sometimes DR leave a lot to be desired for after sales e.g. returns, fault on arrival. Panamoz and HDEW get stellar reviews.

thank you all,think I'll go with Panamoz

I'd recommend panamoz. Bought my canon 6d and 24-105mm from there with no issues at all

I've always been very happy with Panamoz - have never needed to use the warranty but I've only ever heard positive things about then on various forums. Hope they bring back the bank transfer option soon.

Thanks for the link. I ask as i'm considering buying a D750 after my current camera had issues after under a year of having it. I just want to make sure there will be adequate support should i have any issues.

What's the bank transfer option and what's so good about it?

dandeakin · 22 Oct 2015

Until recently you could pay by direct bank transfer and get another 5% (i think) off the total price. I think they only recently got rid of the option - there was a thread on here about the change a few months ago I think. Not everyone was happy to do it (rather than have the protection of a credit card payment), but there was countless threads of very happy customers who used the option. 5% off an already cheap price made it a very cheap price....

As above.

Bad; No protection. it's akin to putting cash in an envelope & posting. (not specifically the said company, just in general)

Used both with no problems, a friend had an issue with a 7dmk2 from panamoz and they sorted it relatively quickly and threw in a 32gb card as an apology for a canon fault!
