Either someone whipped out a can of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dickblick.com\/zz014\/11\/\">Krylon<\/a> to make this happen, or it might be a <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Grey_market\">Grey Market<\/a> camera.

Camera is Imported <\/p>\n<p>Comes with free 3 Year Worldwide Mack Warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In other words, Nikon USA is not warranting the camera because it DIDN&#8217;T come into the US through authorized sales channels.  I&#8217;ve never dealt with Mack before. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\">B&#038;H<\/a> sells extended warranties offered through them, but as an extension to a genuine USA manufacturer&#8217;s warranty.  I guess that means they&#8217;re okay, but I wouldn&#8217;t want to take chances.  Unless Grey Market is what you want and are willing to take the risk, stay away.<\/p>\n<p>It DOES suck that Nikon isn&#8217;t selling the red ones in the US though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Red Nikon E7900&#8230; brings back office space memories<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-432","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gadgets-widgits-and-whatzits","category-photography"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=432"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=432"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=432"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=432"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
