Why do some buyers say they received a Vivitar and not USA Gear? I see you insist it is not Vivitar, so are they not telling the truth?

I do not know what other people got, but the grip I received is USA GEAR, molded into the strap itself.

Debra, you get what you paid for. This is so flimsy, I don't feel safe using it on my investment. I would purchase the hand strap by cotton carrier, only 19 bills and it gives you full control and that peace of mind...

I purchased both the USA Gear DualGrip and the Vivitar filters I do not think anyone is lying. Maybe there is a mixup....

The one I received clearly says U S Gear on it and no where does it say Vivitar. I bought it as US Gear so I am satisfied with it. I find that I don't use it as much as I thought, but it does help stabilize the camera.

I received USA Gear itself, but have other issues with the product. You would need to open this from bottom every time that you would need to charge the battery.

Wow, so you had to return a fake cx-300 sent directly from Amazon?Yes, I agree that Amazon customer service is first rate, but I am also conscious about my gas price (about 15 mins. ride back and forth from post office). More feedback like this would be appreciated. Thanks Hord Jr.!

The one I received was a USA lens with Sigma warranty. It was NOT a "grey market" lens.

I also have heard a few claims here and there that the models made in Japan, for example, are better in some fashion or other though I haven't seen any very convincing evidence of this (is a Honda made in Japan any better than the same model Honda car made in the US?). Buying an imported lens is actually likely to be more trouble than its worth -- you likely won't get a valid US warranty and, unless you're buying from a US shop that has imported the lens, returns or exchanges can be very complicated if not downright impossible. Plus if you're buying from a foreign seller, shipping is typically VERY slow and customs can sometimes be a problem (many sellers cheat by declaring merchandise as "gifts" below a certain amount in order to avoid customs fees but this sometimes doesn't work as planned).

I ordered this product....batteries & charger were just delivered and package says they REPLACE the Canon original LP-E10 battery but the ones I rec'd are made by VIVITAR !! batteries & charger are BOTH Vivitar brand....

It looks like they used the wrong image when they did the ad. They seem to have 2 or 3 ads for that lens. I do love mine it OS a great walk around lens.

I bought from Amazon, but a 3rd party seller, 17th Street Studio. My lens arrived in perfect new condition, and was packaged very well. Also, this lens is awesome!!

I totally agree with you!! Amazon should update the shipment date online. I personally feel that it is very deceiving to customers. I ordered the Nikon D50 on June 22. Amazon kept pushing the delievery date for 3 to 4 times. I just cancelled my order of Nikon d50 from Amazon and order it elsewhere.

I have not ordered that specific item -- here are links to what I have ordered: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GERVPS/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009OY4UZE/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GERVPS/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (same item, different seller from above) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009OY4UZE/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (same item, different seller, again. The links look the same, but the actual sellers are different for both the long and short flashlights) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GERVPS/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Same seller as last, niceshopping2013) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GN5QZTQ/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (This one was not as bright as we thought it should be, and failed to function completely after something over a month. The seller was TrustEHarbor) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FTUCMQQ/ref=oh_details_o06_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Short but darn bright, I got two at one time, both great. Seller hkbayi.) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009OY4UZE/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (I got 3 of these, all great. Seller Sunlight.) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008MEU2F4/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (This looks like the one you bought, I bought mine on 1/16/13, and it's still working like a champ. The seller for mine was East Face Sci&Tech, cost me $72.59 with only the holder, no batteries. You might have a defective unit, I have bought only one of these monsters, and use it a decent bit. The batteries last a long time, I use mine only occasionally, but still bright and not recharged for nearly a year and a half now. If you're much of a tech, you might look for a bad solder connection or a switch problem?) Of all the lights I've bought, all were good or great, minus the single dimmer one I specified above. I hope this helps a little, you might also want to complain to the seller, too.

Danny... I think (hope) that there's a misunderstanding. No one is questioning the fact that E-P1 units are shipping... the question is whether the *specific* kit containing the 17mm lens and optical viewfinder is shipping. Can you state that you have received an email from Olympus regarding the 17mm lens + viewfinder kit?
2192750
Yeah... I saw one or two places myself that claim to have it in stock. I'm less than 100% confident that they're being completely forthcoming though. I think I might just send an email to Buy.com to try and get the straight dope. I'll post any response back here if I get one.

Casey,Thank you for your message. I do not think you ordered these Binoculars from me. I search for your name and could not find it in our order list. Did you order them under a different name?What would be most helpful, is if you could provide your Amazon Order number, then I could look your order status up.Thank you and have a great day,Carlos

I'm confused. I'm not selling glasses. I bought a pair and they plus the flashlight were/are ABSOLUTELY USELESS.If you are inquiring about WHICH pair I purchased it is the pair I see above me and they are in my drawer collecting scratches . I read several reviews before I purchased them and I should have taken heed. The flashlight is equally useless and I wish I had asked for my money back.I don't see a second pair and mine look like the ones shown above.

I'm not sure. You should call the manufacture. Here is the Vivitar support hotline 1-800-592-9541. They should be able to help you. I called them when I purchased my exact lens. They were able to clear up all my questions. The lens is amazing quality for the price. The only bad thing about this lens is it makes my DSLR a little top heavy. So you really should have a tripod if your going to use this lens for long periods of time. Hope that helps.
