42nd Street Photo

Don't Pay to Learn the Lesson - STAY AWAY!

Like so many others, I paid to learn a very valuable lesson to stay away from 42nd street photo and CPS Warranty. I initially ordered an "international" version of the Canon R5 from 42nd Steet Photo. They called and explained the difference so I paid more for the American version. Almost immediately I started getting "Error 70" messages while shooting. I've since learned that's a common problem with the R5. I tried multiple fixes but none worked. I then tried to register the camera with Canon, only to learn that it was NOT in fact an American version but was a gray market camera and was not covered with any waranty. I called 42nd Street and they said, "Oh no, it's covered by CPS." So I get with them, register the camera and file a claim and within minutes the claim is denied because I experienced the problem within the first 30 days of ownership. So in effect, THERE IS NO WARRANTY. What a scam! Again, I paid to learn a very valuable lesson. STAY AWAY!
