I got my 6D from Ian @ Flash Camera for £1050, same price as Digital Rev(I think) but no risk with the VAT/Duty as that's covered before you receive it, gear cones from USA rather than HK. Heard a lot of good things about Panamoz too.

There's a 6D owners thread on here somewhere recent. The 6D is as good as the 5D MKIII in most areas, better in some, only drawback is only the centre focus point is cross type, and there's only one memory card slot, but that's not bothered me in the slightest. Wifi solves the memory card issue...

I'll +1 that, providing my 6D turns up tomorrow as FedEx is suggesting :)

Mines been shipped, should get it tomorrow :banana:

True, I would hope so too. I'm not fussed about size and weight as I don't generally shoot all day, night shooting would be sporadic or have a tri-pod, I spend more time on Lightroom correcting cock ups instead :LOL: I love the 50mm 1.8, I use that 3 x more than everything else combined :) I...

:LOL: Can't see her old man being too pleased when I sell her birthday present. But that will teach him for buying a 70D a few month after I got my 60D!

At the moment I don't need one, but in say 4-5 months I probably might need a second body if I'm in the wedding scenario and taking things more seriously and I'm also a bit of a hoarder when it comes to gear and gadgets. I suppose I may be more inclined to take the 60D with me to risky places as...

So you could use any piece of crap adapter and it's all ok? Some of these I've seen have been lethal! I suppose somebody will have been prosecuted for every law but the UK H&S system is a farce, miles more red tape than is necessary. A bit off topic but the government are apparently trying to...

Well, 12.1 is hard to disagree with but I've certainly bought things from the likes of Apple, PC World, B&Q who have all broke the law for 12(2)(b), I've never needed a tool and it's never been enclosed. Where do adapters like you get in airports come into this? In the real world I can't see...

I can't imagine so, I've bought loads of things from major suppliers that come with a European/ American plugs, a lot of them came with adapters but certainly were not fixed.

I should be getting mine next week from Kerso. Bit of an upgrade to FF from the 60D, looking forward to the low noise shots as I prefer low light photography and shallow DOF :) I've got a bit of a quandary though (I've only owned an SLR for a year so excuse the nievity), I'm not sure if it's...

For a lot of things if it's from the UK and anything to do with the company I would put it through the company, basically how anyone else would do it. I think you misunderstood me regarding the VAT, I wouldn't be trying to claim any VAT back on an item that didn't have VAT applied. I'll ignore...

Thanks :) I'll explain how I landed here (I'm here to stay now by the way, lol): I've only had a DSLR (60D) for a year and just been learning the ropes so to speak but the upgrade to FF has led to a lot of research as you would expect, trying to get the best price with least risk. Forums are...

Sorry if I've not made myself clear, I've not purchased anything from "tiptop" or Digital rev as the risk of import duty and VAT for me is too high and not been proven with "tiptop". As far as digital rev goes you know you're going to get your gear (and good service from what I hear) but might...

You would think so, a thread like this could kill their company quite easily! I'd be on here all day if it was about my company!
