But you paid someone for the camera, John, with a credit card probably. You are
therefore covered by the UK's Sale of Goods Act (various) and by Section 75 of
the Consumer Credit Act (credit card provider jointly liable) such that you
were entitled to goods of merchantable quality. Olympus and its warranty have
nothing to do with this issue: you have bought nothing from Olympus UK, so you
have no contract with it.
You should recover something from this situation.
