I just received my BMCC from
Advantage Video Systems today. Jeff (OP Kyle's boss) delivered it to me at work. The hand delievery was more a matter of proximity (I work in the same town), but still I can't ask for better than that.
There was no markup on the price, and it was shrink wrapped, new in box. The menu shows the intervalometer settings, so I assume it has the latest firmware. I'll verify that tonight. No idea yet if it has the flange distance correction or not because I don't have a lens here to test with.

Advantage is a real company. A small company, but a real one, and I'm over the moon with the service. After waiting 8 months for my order from Safe Harbor, it was kind of shocking to stumble into a situation where I ordered from Advantage last week and got the camera today.
Jeff told me that Advantage placed an order for 50 cameras 20 minutes after they announced it at NAB last year. He has received a total of 8 across two shipments, so there are more on the way in the future. I would consider contacting them if you're looking for a camera. A small company with big service.
