 Topic: Sigma 50mm f1.4 from Panamoz Hong KongPosted: 28 March 2011 at 11:21 |

hi
I just bought a Sigma 50mm f1.4 from Panamoz for 298 GBP, the lens is awesome on my A700. I noticed that there was some adverse comments about this company in a previous thread so I wanted to put the record straight. I ordered it a week ago and it was dispatched from Hong Kong via fed ex express with tracking. I was kept informed at all stages, there were no import charges to deal with all in all a great company to deal with and great prices Dave |

I have this lens as well and also think it's fantastic. No experience with Panamoz though.

Thanks Dave, as I've pulled the trigger on a SAL 70-400mm G SSM. I too have had some scare stories from others telling me they're no good, but your post has put my mind at ease. Cheers. Mark Edited by Pirate - 30 March 2011 at 18:18 |

Thanks for the feedback dave...one of the other members (Pirate) has recently bought a 70-400 from Paramoz and I am sure he will be happy to hear of your glowing reference.
Nice to hear a positive instead of just the usual negative comments. PS one thing though is that Panamoz are a UK limited company and although they also have a office in HK they have a main UK office and are based here. LOL Spooky!!!

Hi Dave, How long did it take from time of payment to being notified of shipping? I only ask as I ordered a lens from them yesterday and my payment is still showing as pending. Just a need to know thing really as I would've thought the time between payment and posting would be fairly quick (same day sort of thing). |
