No, because their stuff is grey market, the 5 year warranty only applies to lenses bought from Tamron's official UK dealers.
Just to tie this one up, I received a FedEx package today which contained the missing eyecup. In fact, it was a brand new Canon EG in the retail packing.The only 'issue' thus far has been that the eyecup is missing from the box. I've double checked (and so has my wife) and it's nowhere to be found. I've already e-mailed Tina and she is sending a replacement out.
[Duplicated from the "Where to buy a 5D mkIII thread"]
After the euphoria of the 5DIII delivery yesterday, today has seen a little bit of a disappointment in terms of what's arrived. The 7D came in the same type of box, but this one had suffered slightly at the hands of the courier. Nothing major, but the Canon box inside was showing a few creases where it had been slightly squashed as if it had enjoyed being sat-on by another box or two.
Nothing inside was damaged and everything is unblemished and works perfectly. However, this package hadn't enjoyed the same 'destined for UK' service as my 5DIII had. I don't feel that this is worthy of a complaint to Panamoz, I'm only telling like it is:
Given that I already have two proper UK chargers (from my 5D's) I'm not at all concerned. Furthermore, the supplied charger does work with the adaptor in a UK socket.
- I've received a wall charger with two flat pins and some sort of 3rd party 3-pin adaptor.
- The camera was set to Japanese/Chinese language.
The language setting was more of a concern because you really need to be able to read the far-eastern hieroglyphics in order to change the language setting to English!
Once again, I was fortunate in having the 5D's so I could emulate the menu settings by cross-referencing and succeeded in changing it to English at my first attempt. However, anyone new to these cameras would not be so fortunate.:|
I just got my first order from them today. Ordered a Tamron 24-70 f/2.8 Sunday morning (in bed with ipad and it arrived at 9:30 this morning. Very happy with both the service and the camera.
I also got a 12 year replacement warranty for free so that was nice, although i hope never to use it.

Email reply from them in less than an hour offering a resolution.Just rec D750 from them at a very good price. However, has turned-up just with photocopied instructions and not a UK charger (although does include an adapter).
Other products have had the correct accessories. I've asked for the correct ones to be sent otherwise the order is cancelled.
Let's see if they sort this out?
