I ordered this lens today. My order confirmation states that it will be delivered between June 11th and sometime in August. Is this true?

Nicola- I would not think it should take that long. I don't see this order in my system so you must have ordered from someone else. Hope this helps. Lori at Polygraphics Products

Just received the camera today. waited forever for amazon. ended up buying it from tigerdirect.com. came with free shipping (fast too...ordered it on thurs). so far i'm really impressed with the camera. can't believe that even after this whole thread, amazon still maintains that the product has "not been released". I totally understand if they, for some reason, can't get their hands on this product. But at least update the page to say "out of stock", which is more accurate in this scenario. I initially thought that it wasn't going to come out till June ANYWHERE based on amazon's response to my email inquiry. Good thing I came across this thread. Thanks guys.

Was just on Sony's website and it shows you can purchase the HX100 again with the ship date of May 16th. Do you think Amazon will be getting it then also or should I just get it through Sony? I have had it on order here since April 13th.

I ordered this lens for my daughter for Christmas and it is new in original packaging. The 'additional' components to the package deal (like the filters, lens cloth, etc.) were in the Amazon package itself - not in with the lens. Hope this is helpful.

Also waiting for my Cintiq to ship. I purchased it May 1, 2011. Does anyone have any current deliveries to speak of. Just trying to get an idea of realistic wait times for this. Some people have made reviews on the product as current as a month ago, so just looking to hear from anyone that has in fact received this item in 2011.

I too have been waiting over a month with no end in sight. I have missed most of the summer and am getting very annoyed with Amazon's system. I am now wordering if Nikon is coming out with a new model (D60) as they are doing with the D80? Since the summer is almost gone I will wait a little longer for the camera but will think very hard about purchasing expensive items from them in the future without a firm shipping date.

@Hugh - by the time I get to evaluating and posting, many reviews will be posted. I'm leaving in a week for a multi-month hike 3 days after the camera is due to arrive.Interestingly, the Sony website now says they're taking pre-orders and it will ship 3/17. I've got my e-mail saying it will ship 3/12 so I'll see by the end of today what happened.

I ordered a D800 from AMZN at 10:32 PST on 2/6 and I still show 4/13-5/1 as estimated delivery date. I am expecting another email from AMZN on 5/1 requiring me to approve another delay. We shall see...

I received my lens, which was not shipped for 12 days after my credit card was charged, and while the packaging was marked "Canon", it looked more like a package that a refurbished one might come in. However, nowhere did it indicate that it was refurbished, but I suspect that it might have been.

The changed plants from what I can gather, which put a kink in getting out x1, m9 and s2's. Some European people are getting orders (trickling) - I'd guess amazon will be able to begin shipping at the end of feb beginning of march. I called Leica USA and they said 6 weeks - that was about a week ago. They also suggested there would be no benefit in canceling with amazon and buying from a local shop. "Amazon are as likely to get them as anyone else" which begs the question though - how many preorders does amazon have on this thing?

Yes, my order did. I was very pleased with the whole process. You will love the lens.

I just got an email stating between Nov 1 and December 1. Wow... should I wait for the pancake lens? It's $50 more than the 14mm-45mm...

I'm also on the wait list. They got my hopes up, giving me a Jan. 19 delivery date, then changed it to "we don't know when it will ship." I might try the local camera shops. I don't mind paying sales tax, but I'm not going to pay an extra $1,600.

Well, that's a moot point. I ordered it from amazon.com and took delivery in the London (UK) two days later. Amazon was the only supplier who could guarantee delivery during the 5 days I was in the UK. A couple of days later, I looked at the paperwork that came with the lens. It said something to the effect that the warranty was only good for the US. I know that Nikon guarantees its products worldwide for a year. I called Nikon (UK) and they verified this verbally and in writing. Nikon (US) had other ideas and told me that it wasn't Nikon that needed to honor the warranty but Amazon as the retailer. Amazon said "No way" and suggested that if I wasn't happy I could return the lens to the US (at my expense with a refund promised for shipping expenses) . The ping-pong continued for another day and in the end, Amazon said that the invoice from them was proof of purchase and that this essentially covers the warranty worldwide. In my case, the whole point of the exercise was that I had a project the following week and needed the lens so I took the risk and left it at that. I wouldn't expect a major problem with a lens during the first year anyhow and my other Nikkor lenses have been great. If needs be, we'll see what happens - and if really needs be and the warranty isn't honored, then I'll have to fork up! So, really, it's up to you to decide what you want to do. I had already made up my mind that I wanted it by a certain date and was willing to take whatever risk might be involved. I hope that this helps you.
