You need to ask if the camera at eBay is gray market or if it comes with a full Canon 1 year warranty.

Lens is "Made in Japan" and says so right next to the serial number. It has USA warranty. If the seller is Amazon, then it is for sure not gray market.

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

yes, but do not buy it. it's very poor in colours and shows almost pictures in grey not even black.

Amazon does not source gray market items, so it would come with a USA Warranty. However, if you are buying from any other sellers make sure you verify.

It's US Market, NOT GREY Market at all. I register mine I bought here on my Canon CPS support account.

The one I purchased was not Gray Market -- it was a white box Canon lens -- broken out from a kit package with the 6D.

The Amazon write up said this lens was gray market. It was made by Canon, but ... The definition of gray market is important. I don't know how Canon views these lenses. No joy in this answer I'm afraid.

I believe that is a mistake, it is the new version. However, using the SLR camera market as an reference, this item is "grey" market. That is, it is a product manufactured for the Chinese market, not the the US market. This matters to Apple, who will not allow the US AppleCare to used with it. At least, this was my experience.

If the lens is new and purchased from a Nikon authorized retailer, the lens will be U.S. - these retailers cannot sell new grey market lenses or cameras. Same with Manufacturer refurbished equipment. If the lens is used, the retailers can sell grey market lenses but they must state that the lens is grey market. If the lens is being sold by a 3rd party seller or non-reputable retailer, you may need to ask as these individuals seldom advertise whether or not a lens is U.S. or Grey Market. Note that a grey market lens is not inferior to a U.S. lens - only that you will not be able to get it serviced by Nikon USA if you do have a problem.

Can't speak for the seller of the camera. However, my camera purchased new from an authorized retailer came with a battery, charger and cord and was not a grey market item. A memory card was not included. I would check with the seller you intend to purchse from before making the purchase so as to confirm what accessories the camera includes. Hope this assists you as this is a nice camera for the price.

Yes, this camera is available in white color, same feature and function. Please check the following link; http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Outdoor-Infrared-Security-Surveillance/dp/B003YZXQXG/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1355205901&sr=1-2&keywords=vd6hw

It didn't appear to be gray market . This lens takes some of the most incredible pictures..... I have had several Canon Cameras and a number of different types of lenses. If I can only take one to a general gathering, this is the one I take. The little trip-pod was pretty useless, but I don't use tri-pods for the most part. The lens is light .... and costs much less than the other name brands

"gray market" doesn't have anything to do with the color of the lens, at least in this case. It just means that it's not sold with the USA warranty. Check out Adorama's FAQ for more info http://www.adorama.com/catalog.tpl?op=FAQ#Grey%20Market%20Information:

Gray market means that this lens is not distributed officially by Canon in the USA, so you don't have warranty of Canon USA, that's why is cheaper.The lens is the same lens, so if you don't care about the warranty go for it.Good luck!
