Sadly B&H has decided they are NOT shipping till the 8th. I ordered next day MORNING delivery so Friday morning will have to work. The grips are arriving the 9th so hopefully will ship the following Monday with the batteries I ordered as well. So I'll have to do my evaluation without a grip over the weekend assuming they get enough to fulfill the pre order list where I am at this time. They said to call Wednesday to see if I'm on that list and good to go. Painfully enough the 16-55 f2.8 I ordered with it wasn't in stock but was 7-14 days away when they ordered it a week ago, so said it "might be possible" that it would arrive in time to ship with the camera. Guess I'll see soon enough. I already ordered the 50-140 f2.8, 10-24 f4 OIS and 100-400, and even got in on the 1.4x and 2.0x teleconverter deals. Should be fun to check all that out once it happens.

Sorry to hear that B&H is not matching Amazon on this. It was the first time i have seen it done with something I have ordered and thought it was a really neat way to honor the release date embargo but get the item to the customer fast. I have heard or it being done with mobile/cell phone releases before. On the other hand, I have also seen preorders in the cell phone world received AFTER people that ordered the day of shipping release. Weird world.

 

For me, online has been the only way to get Fuji stuff. My local photography store only recently started carrying them.

 

Good luck in your quest and enjoy your new camera/photography tool/toy ;-)

It looks like B&H got their delivery. I just noticed my status changed to "In stock, order sent to warehouse Expedited Delivery  ".  Had a quick chat with an online agent and he seemed adamant that it would ship for delivery on the 8th or the 9th without next day air.

Ah! Mine is still "On order". Crud.

Good news, bad news....

 

The X-T2 camera has a tracking number that is scheduled for delivery tomorrow. :-)

 

But.....

 

The Power booster got kicked back to a pre-order status with no delivery date :-(

 

Should be interesting to see what the Amazon site says tomorrow on stock and availability.

I'm curious, nuetz—when did you get your pre-order in for B&H?

Same thing happened for me, but Adorama says they have the power grips in stock, so I ordered one from them and cancelled the grip from Amazon

    • Hopefully these will help some. For quite a while now Apple has put stuff into their operating system so that you cannot yourself open the connected camera’s card and see the images, you have to use their or third party software to do that.
    • Thanks for the instructions:  I was doing up to 3 successfully but can't wait to get home and try  4 and 5 and report back. Cheers, John
    • Okay, just for completeness sake: 1.     The camera’s menu connection setting is USB CARD READER. 2.    The computer is turned on, booted and nicely operational. 3..    With the camera turned off, connect the camera to the computer using a known-to-be-good USB C data plus power cable (a data only cable should work as well, a power only cable will not work). 3.   The camera’s charging light may turn on. Turn the camera on. The back screen probably will show the USB symbol as well as the USB letters. 4.    Start up the Image Capture app and see if the camera’s name appears in the devices list. 5.    In the Apple menu, select ‘About This Mac’, click on the ‘More Info…’ button, and on the right hand side of the window that opens, at its bottom is a button called ‘System Report…’, click on it. A new window should open, the left hand side has collapsible dropdown listings, the first is called “Hardware’, within it is the USB listing, select that. The right side pane should give you listings of all the USB devices connected at that moment, one of them should say something like USB PTP Camera. Does either 4. or 5. work?
    • Thanks, Yes I knew about the USB issue in newer Macs and macOS but that is why I tested it with High Sierra as well. Also the fact that every other camera easily connects via USB direct with the camera - definitely points out the fact that it is a FUJI specific problem.  Furthermore - I remember being able to direct connect early last year. I rarely take the Cards OUT of the camera  these days. The weird thing is I can connect my iPhone 15 via USB-C to 100s and pull files directly - puzzling. Problem is FUJI rarely listens to anyone.    
    • Hi all, I notice that there are some focusing sound on my XF33 despite it being said as completely silent in many review. The focusing sound is kind of like stepping motor sound, and it only appears when I’m shooting photo. I try shooting near and far away and there is sound. However, it is completely silence when I shoot videos. Is it normal or do I need to change some of my setting? Or am I just getting a not too good copy haha. please assist me with the matter guys! Thanks!
