My suggestion would be if you want a Canon camera then buying from Hong Hong will be OK so long as it comes with International warranty and will be repaired in Australia. Back to base warranty will be a killer if YOU have to pay for postage back to Hong Hong not to mention the time delays.
For Nikon cameras forget it. Nikon company warranty is NOT International - in fact if your serial is out region you cannot even update firmware or download local language software updates. (this issue does not apply for Nikkor/Nikon Lenses)
Nodal Ninja Panoheads are now only available direct from www.nodalninja.com.au for Australia Pacific Region customers. Local supplier for local customers, this is better for customers with warranty, support and faster delivery times. One of the biggest benefits of the Nodal Ninja is that there is a know list of camera/lens position settings to correctly align for rotation shooting on the No Parallax Point.
Of course the Agnos MrotatorTCPS has been a favourite of mine for years and I still use one along with Nodal Ninja panoheads. The delivery times form Italy are typically fairly quick.
Regards, Smooth
