I only realized this when i called Nikon in Mississauga Ontario to arrange for a CCD cleaning. I was asked for the s/n and the girl on the other end said it was a US camera,that they would not work on it.I mentioned i knew it was off warranty and was willing to pay cash money,but no was her answer. I talked to the service manager and he confirmed this HOWEVER Nikon Canada would clean the CCD but that was it. BTW this is ONLY for digital cameras,not film cameras or lenses.
