they claim it's backordered :/ hope you actually receive it!

 

It looked like they got some in stock but sold them out pretty quickly after filling pre-orders.

 

Not sure where you ordered from but for photography stuff it seems like Amazon and B&H get a huge amount of pre-orders and are more likely to have bigger backlogs but it probably depends on the product in question.

For those people lucky enough to have a store in their area that sells Fuji.

I think many of the smaller shops around the country also have an online shop!?

There is more than Amazon, B&H or Adorama where you can shop online.

I ordered mine 2 days prior to the official release date. The small retailer is aprox 200km away from me, but he has an online shop too.

It arrived on saturday.

I think that is a good point.

 

One thing I struggle with here in the US is that for whatever reason there are a lot of shady camera retailers out there.  Especially in the Northeast part of the country.  I am sure there is some historical reason for this but I don't know what it is.  Trying to order from a small shop you are not familiar with requires a decent amount of research to ensure they are legitimate.

 

 

 

I see. Sorry about it )

 

No offense taken :) 

 

I am lucky to have such a shop near me but many don't.  Unfortunately, my local shop typically has a longer waiting list than the big national chains for pre-orders.

      Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

      55 or 80?

      By BIGOAK · Posted

      Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?

      See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.

      What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
