The warranty that comes with the camera is the standard Canon products one year warranty. I first looked to purchase this camera directly from Canon and looked at their extended warranty for three years and found it quite expensive. Turns out they didn't have the camera in stock anyway and didn't know when they would get more. Much to my surprise, Best Buy did have the EOS 90D in stock and ready to ship. Moreover, Best Buy's extended three year warranty was more comprehensive than the one offered by Canon, was substantially less expensive than Canon's, and had the added convenience of being able to drop the camera off for service at my neighborhood Best Buy store instead of shipping it off to Canon's repair facility in Newport News, Virginia. I've had my camera now for several months, have taken several hundred pictures with it, and it works flawlessly. I have the added peace of mind of my extended three year warranty through Best Buy, but hope I never have to use it. Im very happy with my choice. As an aside, I will add here that I have an older Canon EOS Rebel T5i, have taken tens of thousands of pictures with it, and have never had a single problem with it. What I have had problems with are Canon's EFS lenses, none of which I purchased extended warranties for. The first one I had to send back to Canon was the 18 to 55 mm lens while it was still in the factory warranty period because it would not manually focus. The new lens they sent me in its place has worked perfectly for many years since. Right now, I'm waiting for Canon to return my 75 to 250 mm lens which quit auto focusing after 135 mm. It's five years old, so no warranty or extended warranty on it and it was half the price to get it fixed than a new one would have cost, but still quite expensive. Turns out they are replacing it with a factory reconditioned identical lens. The old lens took many thousands of pictures before begining to malfunction so I'm hoping for the same type of performance from the one they're sending me. So from my experience, it might pay to cover the Canon lenses with extended warranties also.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The warranty is only one year. You could probably buy an extended warranty from Best Buy. The warranty does not cover accidental damage, only defects and par failures.
