Re: Olympus E-P5 dial malfunction and warranty questions

Even if it came with a worldwide warranty (I'm guessing it does because the E-P5 is one of Oly's lowest selling cameras, and there's probably plenty of 1+ year old inventory sitting on shelves out there), I believe it has to be purchased from an overseas seller who is an authorized dealer.  I doubt many of the sellers on eBay/Amazon are.

My E-P5 had to be serviced under warranty for the same issue. None of the dial-turning solutions mentioned fixed it. Then it failed again a few months later. After that experience, I'm afraid to buy a gray market Olympus body even if they are 2/3 the price.
