Will Oly SG honour warranty from overseas?

[MC42]

Dear friends,

Has anyone bought an Oly from USA? Does Oly SG support warranty repairs? I'm going for a short work related trip to US and might pick up the E420 there. But only if Oly SG supports it.

Thanks!

Regards.

Yes, and only Olympus offers international warranty for all their DSLRs and lenses. I have sent in my E-330 bought in US for servicing at Oly SG, no questions asked. Just make sure you have the warranty card and receipt.

International warranty for all Olympus Camera, Lenses and accessories. That is why they are different from Canon and Nikon and set no restrictions based on dealers' whining... Channel sales does not affect Olympus' promise to customers about after sales service. Does not matter where you buy your gear, and where you send it in for repairs, Olympus has to honour the warranty. That is the best thing about being an Olympus user ...

Thanks for all the replies. It's refreshing to hear that Oly has such a proactive, forward looking warranty policy. Certainly a plus point to consider when making a systems decision.

Thanks again to all.
