Dear B&H,

Can you still ship cameras with lithium ion batteries to Japan?

The reason I ask is because although I've shipped to and had cameras shipped from international locations on numerous occasions before. This week i tried to ship a small point and shoot to my mother in Australia but it seems EMS is really cracking down on the lithium ion air shipping. They simply refused to ship it. I asked if I were to say there was no battery in it would they ship it and was told that the lithium battery can be see by th X-Ray and it wouldn't pass customs.

Although this is not Pentax related (as I can get all the Pentax gear I need here in Japan) I do want to purchase a Samsung (I assume you carry the range?) because their cameras are unavailable in Japan.

Regards,
Paul Singleton.

Hello,

Have used the NX10 all summer ( had to give it back to Samsung ) it's excellent and I'm told more lens are coming. The NX100 looks very cool, but have not seen it yet.
