Andrewmfilms, can you confirm shipment of your camera and that you ordered on September 9th? If so, can we update this thread name?

I was talking to BH this morning and they say there's no shipments that late yet. I ordered Sept 7. The latest confirmed I've seen is August 30.

Perhaps he had meant August 9th, not September 9th

I ordered my camera with B&H on August 28th. They contacted me yesterday at the NAB and said it was shipped Monday morning. Very cool. I just ordered the Pocket camera this morning.

Ordered September 7, 2012.

I've been checking my order tracking on the B&H website everyday for the past week. The order for the BMCC Camera just went from "Status: On order" to "Status: In stock, order sent to warehouse Purolator Ground". I have yet to receive a confirmation email.

I will update once I know more.

Guess I'm going to have to order some SSDs now!

EDIT: still no confirmation email, so it doesn't look like it's actually shipping yet...

EDIT: IT HAS BEEN SHIPPED, just confirmed in B&H email. In other words, ordered on Sept 7 2012, shipped on Apr 10 2013

Does anyone have any clue how many times a week/month B&H gets camera shipments? I know some of the workers share more info than others. I am September 10th, and just read a 7th order shipped....so very anxious :)

Their info is kinda vague at times, but from what it seems, it's about once a week that they get an order and feels as if it is early in the week.

I don't want to screw up BH's business but Adorama has the 2.5k EF in stock and is shipping same day. I even returned one because it arrived defective and it was a two and a half day turn around from when I dropped it at ups and had a new one at my doorstep. I was a loyal BH customer so I'm not here to bash them, I just feel bad for everyone waiting so long for one of these when Adorama is shipping orders same day. I would call first to confirm before canceling anything anywhere else.

Because of the person who posted that they ordered 10/03/2012 and have received shipping information I decided to do a live chat with customer service. Despite the fact that my order still says "New Order Processing" the rep said: "The item was just made available to ship on your order, your order will ship today. You will receive an email with the tracking information once the order is shipped. If you order ships today then you should receive it by Thursday."

I am beyond excited! May the rest of your orders be fulfilled more swiftly than mine! It has been a long road but there is light up ahead!

Can people write the dates out? It's confusing to read the American style date format when you're used to international.

Are there EVF's with HD-SDI inputs for under 700 bucks? ONly work around have seen is get BM hyperdeck shuttle > SDI to HDMI. Then acts as a back up recorder...and use it with your 5D3 to record 8bit 422. Unbelievable how 8bit is becoming obsolete in no time.

Unless something else catches my attention I will likely go with the smallHD DP4-EVF combined with the hyperdeck shuttle. Seems like a great value due to the shuttle both converting the signal and providing a secondary recorder.
