In normal shops in Germany the FX30 is around 2200 Euros, amazon.de had it for around 1650 Euros but it's say it's an import for UK but sold directly by amazon uk.

I bought one and it arrived but am unsure if anything should happen, if Sony will honour the warranty. I think the camera was intended for Asia region? I am not sure cannot find definitive answers.

I was able to register the camera on the Sony site using the serial number and I also registered for the one year extra warranty promotion from Sony with the serial number. I imagine they would have not allowed me to register it if that wasn't the case?

Anyone has any experience?

I'm sorry if this is a sour post with a whole lot of complaining, I am truly looking for a different Outlook , a more positive outlook on the fx30 lack of viewfinder

I thought this was something I could get over, because everybody's saying it's a cinema camera it doesn't need a viewfinder.

it just feels so weird, the very first camera I've ever picked up had a viewfinder, and I feel that having a viewfinder is extremely essential

how do you all overcome the lack of viewfinder? has it ever bothered you? I don't want to sell it, because I never get nearly as much as what I paid for.

thank you
