Haven't bought anything from them myself but there's been good feedback for them from various people on here. Have a look at HDEW cameras see if they've got what you want. Uk based with similar prices, I bought my canon n lenses from there.

Not bought anything myself, but a colleague has and had great service. It does come from Hong Kong, but they are a completely legit company and are definitely British 'based' if that makes any sense.

They do some good (well...can be slightly annoying, but generally good and quite amusing) video reviews, tips etc as well.

DigitalRev? Yep. I've bought camera stuff from them off eBay and from their website. Grey import stuff obviously, but seems to be a legit company.

Yup, also bought lenses from them - grey import but decent service...

They're fine, though there are apparently some issues with having to send warranty claims back to HK. Not used them but I've used One Stop Digital which is a similar outfit. I can also recommend HDEW.

Panamoz, HDEW and DigitalRev all have decent reps...the cost savings can be very significant.

It's getting to be a problem if you [i]don't [/i]buy from them, as the s/h value of camera gear is pinned by the grey import price, which for a 5Dmk3, is about £600 cheaper than uk retail.

Note that they seem to have different prices depending on item location and item origin.
Some are 'guaranteed no duty' and some are not.
Worth double-checking. They sometimes have different listings of the same product.

I've never heard of Panamoz before, but they get a poor rep on Web of Trust:

HDEW are fine to deal with, i buy stuff from them all the time, mainly as they are u.k based so i get a proper vat receipt (im vat reg) plus they are down the road from me so i can collect.
if the item you want isn't listed they can usually get it in for you.

Dunno, there's a load of people on Talk photo who have had good experiences, I'll be using them for my next camera.
