First units should be out in the stores later this week. Body only coming next week in Singapore
|
FYI-Just called Calumet and they said order one today and it will be 1-2 weeks.
|
B&H reflected "taking pre-orders" either Sat or Sun (forget which) again so I pre-ordered. When they opened up on Tue the item listing reflected "back ordered".
Tracking my "order" yesterday showed "on backorder". Checked again today around noon and status is "ready to ship". They must have got some in and some of us got lucky on the timing. I'd say watch B&H about twice a day and when they open up "pre-order", pop right on it. |

Onecall does not have a date yet from the people of Canon. Nothing confirmed for this week. They were accepting pre orders since begining of month but not having a concrete date. |
Most retailers received their shipment from Canon today. Mine is already shipped and according to FedEx should be here on friday. I ordered mine from Dury's.
A friend of mine who pre-ordered his from Amazon has been shipped today as well. |
I'm showing shipped from B&H today. 3-day delivery puts it here Monday.

Yesterday for my local retailer in Austin (Precision Camera). They received twenty body-only kits, fourteen of which were on pre-order, including mine. Several folks canceled their kit-with-lens orders and picked up the body instead. Within a couple of hours, they were all gone.

Mine is showing "ready to ship" at B&H. I should see it early next week.

If you're looking for a 7D I highly suggest using...
Canon 7D In Stock & Preorder Tracker - NowInStock.net Sign up and they will email you when the 7D becomes in stock at B&H. Yesterday I got an email and had my 7D ordered within a few minutes. About an hour later they were back ordered. Today I got a tracking email and the 7D will be here Friday via USPS. I feel bad for people who pre-ordered and still haven't gotten theres. (I didn't buy mine from B&H. But I always support B&H when possible.) |
Has anyone received one WITH lens? I think I'm going to change my pre-order to the body-only if it's quicker.

Hey Guys
Thanks for the info! Well I got stock for few more days with the people of Onecall. They don't even have a day yet. I ordered beginning of the month. Let's see |
Bah...well I preordered the kit at amazon like a da. Any vendors in the Miami area with stock or online vendors on here with stock let me know.

Kevin,
I feel your pain. It's pretty tough to read the Amazon page which still reads, "This item has not yet been released", and on here I'm reading of people walking into stores, buying the camera, shooting short films and posting them online. I kind of feel left out of the celebration. Oh well, there is always tomorrow... and also next week. :) |
Considering we have a full RED setup, it's not TOO painful. ;-) But I am excited to get my hands on this smaller camera. The RED is great, but it's a lot of setup for quick shots.
I just added a body-only to another order on Amazon to see which gets to me quicker. Hopefully they don't both come in the same day...I don't need 2! **Oops. You were speaking to the other Kevin. I have an order on amazon, too, and like that Kevin...called around to a bunch of online places to no avail.** |

That's funny, I did the same thing this morning. Now I've got a body only and a kit coming as well. I have a feeling they might be seeing a pattern there. Alright, good night and happy waiting. |
