Full US warranty?

As long as it says Canon you don't need warranty. They build their camers like tanks. Last forever

Hmm. Like hell you don't need Canon's warranty. I've sent a Rebel to them at least 3 times, a flash twice, and several different lenses once each. Bad luck? Perhaps. But with the warranty I was only out one-way shipping rather than hundreds of dollars in repairs plus shipping.

Came with full US Warranty.

Also consider how you pay for your product. I have American Express, and they are amazing when it comes to backing me up. I've been a customer for twenty years (not sure if that has anything to do with it), but they've helped me many times. I bought a Nikon D7000, and a couple months later scratched the lens while trying to get too close to a bear in the zoo (scratched the lens on the bars). I called them and they replaced it, no questions asked.

They have a lot of backing in various areas, such as theft, damage, etc., at no extra cost. They also double every warranty you get. For example, a new canon comes with a one-year warranty. Just by purchasing it with AMEX your warranty is doubled...just like that.

They also offer $1,000 no-questions-asked protection in the first 90 days, even if you smash it in anger (I realize the 6D cost more than a grand, but still....).


Other credit cards might have similar features and protection. Shop around. Good luck.
