Second, Nikon U.S.A. is really strict about not honoring the warranty on
Nikon products purchased outside the U.S.A., while Canon doesn't make a
big deal about it. Nikon U.S.A. won't even fix products purchased
outside the country when the owner is willing to pay for the repair.

They also won't sell parts for the repair by a third party. The one exception
is that if you were a resident of the country you bought the camera in when
you bought it, they will honor the warranty.
