AF100 vs AF101

[Nasser]

Hi
My favorites online store is B&H and they only sell AF-100 , yet I'm in PAL region , I understand that it's NTSC/PAL switchable , but just want to make sure that I will not miss any features the AF-101 model offers .
Any start lens recommendation will be highly appreciated , I shoot most outdoors , documentary style .
I'll pick two of Lexar 64GB Professional 133x SDXC Memory Cards .

As far as I know there is no difference in features, the number just designates what region it is to be sold in, mostly for warranty purposes. You may find that the panasonic warranty centers in your region may not service it as it will be considered gray market, and you will have to send it to a USA panasonic service center for service.

Exactly -- if you buy outside your "home" territory, you will not have warranty coverage -- you'd have to send it back to the USA for warranty service. On the plus side, any unit bought from an authorized seller in the USA would have a copy of "The AF100 Book" packaged in it. Whether that makes up for missing out on a three-year warranty is, of course, a question you'd have to ask yourself.
