Good catch. I noticed that yesterday and now I have one in the mail
Getting it through B&H with this deal saves me $450 CAN compared to buying within Canada.
Good deal on a great lens!
FYI, or maybe you know this already, make sure to register your Batis 135 on-line to qualify for the Zeiss extended warranty. "From the purchase date you have a four-week window to register your ZEISS photographic product online. You will then receive the ZEISS Extended Warranty which is valid for three years."
I bought the 135/2.8 Batis in Tokyo as new and registered it online right away about 2 weeks ago, but haven't heard anything from Zeiss (no e-mail response or anything). How do they usually let the owner know that the registration was successful and the warranty got extended?
Earlier on this registration process was excluding Japan so I couldn't do it with my earlier Batis lenses. This was the first time to try.
I'm very happy with the lens. Also still have the Batis 25mm. I used to own the 85mm and 18mm too but I sold them as I got the new Sony WA zooms this year and since I also have the 85GM and Sony 85/1.8.
Hello Juha: Check your SPAM folder just in case. I always receive a "ZEISS: Thank you for registering" email confirming my Zeiss lens registration, and extended warranty period along with a registration number. From the way the registration email reads, you will need the registration number, so you may want to contact them directly to follow up. Here is the contact info they sent to me:
"Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us:
Thanks for the detailed info! Nothing from Zeiss in Spam (I used my Gmail address for the registration and checked all folders). I'll try to run the registration once more and if it doesn't result in any response I'll drop them an e-mail query. Hopefully it works out somehow.
Update: The 2nd try to register showed that the lens is already registered (I guess it got through on the first try 2 weeks back), but since I never received the acknowledgement e-mail including registration number, I sent an e-mail to that Zeiss e-mail address asking about it.
