UK suppliers....

Having real problems trying to find a UK supplier for the XL2. Has anybody seen any UK based companies with this a) in stock b) on interest free credit....

Either that or I sell my granny.....

Personally I'd recommend Optex.

Intrest-free credit? I don't think there is such a thing!

Optex are taking orders for the XL2.
http://www.xl1s.com/ (don't worry about the XL1-s in the web address!)

Hi there
I have a good place to recommend

www.ebuyer.com

They are mainly a computer component website, however they sell a lot of digital camera equipment.

The only thing I can vouch for them is that I have spent around £10,000 upwards on computer components (I build PC's) and they are definately not going to run away with your money!

They have 2 in stock now. And at a really good price - around £100 lower than optex.

What are you waiting for!

Lawrence

I'll 3rd the optex recommendation. Although I've not brought any thing from them. Simons always willing to give advise ;). If you want decent support then these are the guys to go with...

Probably Jessops will sell it, and they do some sorts of credit agreements. However the guys there won't know much about it!

The have them in stock at £3480 or something like that.
They are great guys and know what they are talking about.
They also have excellent after sales service.
I get all my stuff from them, you cant go wrong.
