Yes
Microglobe are currently supplying the AF Extension tubes for £122 shipped if anyones interested.

Ordered mine on Good Friday and arrived today so can't complain...
 
Aren't onestop Hong Kong based ? Still a good price though :)
 
Yes, but their reputation is excellent and they will refund any import charges, so unless you are in a tearing hurry I'd say it's worth saving £30+. It's not like there's much to go wrong with three small metal tubes.

They supplied my 135/2 a couple of months ago for £635 delivered. The current best UK price according to Camerapricebuster is £888 delivered. That's a saving too good to ignore.

Just wanted to ask, in case the lens needs some warranty repairs (God forbid) can it be done here in UK?

I know Stigma and Tamron won't honour warranty unless you can prove you bought from UK and the UK seller paid VAT.
 
Canon lenses have an international warranty. They do not have to be purchased in the UK.

I have had to show a "proof of purchase" when taking kit in for warranty service/repair/adjustment, but I have no idea how much attention they pay to whether or not VAT has been paid at the point of sale. Since the warranty is international I don't really see that it's any of their business. If the lens had been bought abroad by a non UK resident there would be no need for VAT to have been paid. Surely all they need is a purchase date to ensure the product is within warranty.

I had no problem with a 100/2.8L IS Macro lens supplied by Kerso. Anything else I've taken in to date has been UK sourced, so not an issue, or out of warranty, so also not an issue.

p.s. even in the worst case scenario, where they might refuse warranty repair, not that they would have any right to do so, I could afford to pay for two fixed price repairs (£127.50 each time) to my 135/2 and still be no worse off financially than buying within the UK.

Only just clarifying as I'm tempted to buy from them. I never had problem with canon stuff bought from kerso, just had a problem with stigma. Cheers.
 
If you want a 300/2.8L IS the saving is almost £500 compared to Camerapricebuster's best UK price. :)
 
I want a 135 with a red ring
