Hi,
I'm looking to buy a Canon 5d Mark IV and an L lens. I can get both at a similar price from either SOcameras (they are slightly used with around 1000 shutter count, originally from Jessops apparently), or go to somewhere like Panamoz and get them new.
My assumption is that the SOcameras version is either ex-demo, or a return, and then Jessops sells them to SOcameras or something like that?... No idea if the 1 year warranty is with SOcameras or if its a manufacturers warranty. I'm guessing the former..
Panamoz seem to have a good reputation and offer a 3 year warranty, but if I can get genuine UK that might be better for piece of mind and later re-sale. On the other hand SOcameras do not seem to have the reputation of Panamoz and the like, and it's only a 1 year warranty.
I'd like to get a few opinions on this please in case there is something I haven't thought of ... It's a lot of money to spend so any advice would be appreciated.
