Canon EOS 20D printed manuals languages
Hi all
I'm probably going to order a Canon EOS 20D in the very near future. I have one question: are the printed manuals in the language of the country where the camera is purchased, or are they multilingual? Same question for the software CD(s?). I'd rather have the manuals in English, though I'll cope with French if the exchange rate takes a turn for the worse (and I also suppose that I'll have to get a different cable, or use an adapter for the battery charger from a camera bought in the UK and used in France). A bientot Paul -- Paul Floyd http://paulf.free.fr (for what it's worth) Surgery: ennobled Gerald. |

Buy from Hong Kong, you will get an English Manual, the voltage rating is the same as the UK, you get 3 pin and 2 pin adaptor leads. Also most HK sellers are willing to throw in extra's (camera bag, tripod, spare battery) |

Also most HK sellers are willing to throw in extra's (camera bag, tripod, spare battery) Thanks for the answer, but my question wasn't 'where can I get a cheap camera'! In the past I did look into importing from outside the EU (in particular from the USA). UPS (or another of the big parcel firms) has a web site where you can work out the final cost of an import, including import duties and sales taxes, and it was rather discouraging. www.pixmania.fr has the 20D + EF-S 16-55mm for Euro1496 + shipping. Even with the weak dollar, I don't think that I'd save anything by importing from the USA. I'm not too sure about buying on the internet from Hong Kong.
