In the past, Pentax, and other manufactures, sometimes had different
warranty arrangements with based on country. In the USA if a camera was
sold with a without a USA warranty i.e. not by the official importer you
really had no recourse to the importer if something went wrong. Such
cameras were referred to as gray market. The importer wasn't required
to honor the warranty. Now that Pentax USA is a direct subsidiary of
Pentax Japan, in the US at least, that seems to have changed. The
situation may still apply in other countries.

are there any warranty ramification to someone in the US buying a K-5II
from a canadian store? Or does CRIS consider it all one territory?
Where do Canadian purchasers send their cameras for warranty work?
Directly to Pentax here in the Toronto area(*Mississauga), or if still
under camera store extend warrenty i let them send it.
I always thought Pentax warranty was international, no??
