Re: [Digital BW] Nikon D100

The con to getting a non-USA warranty camera if you live in the US, is that Nikon will not fix it for you for free. They will tell you it's a gray market camera. With a digital camera, I would recommend getting a USA camera. Cheaper is not worth the risk.

By the way, the Fuji S2(nikon mount also), is getting better reviews than either the Canon D60 or Nikon D100.

Subject: [Digital BW] Nikon D100

All,

I'm getting a new camera, and I'm leaning toward the Nikon D100. I
noticed that several dealers offer US and non-US cameras. The non US
are much less money. What are the "cons" of getting one of the non-US
Nikons? Any other advise (especially lenses) for multi-purpose work
is much appreciated.

They are gray market, and do NOT have the manufacturer's warranty. This
can be VERY important.
