FAQ

Are grijze import Canons fake?+

Usually they are genuine Canon products with non-local warranty and regional firmware — not counterfeits. Verify seller reputation separately.

Which grijze import models unlock most often?+

PowerShot G7 X Mark III, SX740 HS, EOS M50 Mark II, and EOS M200 are common success cases — always confirm firmware first.
