I think that the price include delivery to UK and Europe.
Also, I've heard that Holdan is offering a bundled deal; if you buy a kit from your authorized dealer that includes a bag & battery, they include a copy of the book for free.Last edited by Barry_Green; 01-19-2011, 12:45 PM.

Just received an update from Holdan regarding how the rollout across Europe is progressing:
"Holdan (where I work) is a distribution company, and as such we do not sell direct to end-users, but strictly sell though our reseller channel.
The AG-AF100 books have just a few days ago arrived into our warehouse. The resellers are in the process of gearing up marketing, and are placing ordering for stock with us. I expect the reseller channel in general will have stock available for dispatch within a few days.
To speed things up, I have been in contact with some of our resellers here in UK, to verify stock level with them, and for urgent orders please visit or contact Dingle Star - http://www.dsvideo.tv/ - info@dsvideo.tv . The book will also be available though some of our online etailers at Amazon.co.uk very shortly.
We are in contact with our resellers across Europe and I will try to keep everyone in the forum informed.
I hope this will be useful and please do not hesitate to contact me or any of my colleges via telephone +44 1457851000 or e-mail sales@holdan.co.uk
Best Regards
Allan"

Thanks for making it included. I don't think I ever opened my manual for my HPX, but I have read your HVX/HPX book cover to cover several times. It was the most useful guide to that camera. period. I am sure the AF100 one will rock too.Panasonic AF100 w/ Adaptimax Plus Nikon Mount

The thanks for bundling go to Jan at Panasonic USA, and to Holdan in the UK. They're the folks who have made the decision to offer it as part of the package.
Glad you found the HVX book helpful! The AF100 book is pretty similar, much of the text is the same since the basic functionality of the cameras overlap, but there's a ton of new stuff in The AF100 Book too.

Personally I love the book - read it cover to cover yesterday, after collecting our first batch from Chris on Friday! Can't wait to view the Audio and Lighting titles too!

Glad you liked it, and thanks for making it available for those in the EU who want to get it. Shipping internationally has been frustrating for my buyers and for me; the US Postal Service claims it delivers in 4-6 days, but in reality it usually takes a minimum of 14 and usually more like 21 days, and their "tracking" number doesn't usually actually track at all. And then sometimes but not always, the buyer gets hit with taxes and import fees, on top of it.
Now it should be much simplified, faster, fewer hassles for everyone involved, and better service for the end customer.
(you read that whole thing cover to cover, in one day? Wow... that's a lot!)
