German Blackmagic Distributor

The reseller who claimed that it's "in stock" and where I have ordered one instantly, has now changed their website to "on enquiry"....

As soon as there is something simliar I'll cancel my pre-order, even if it's the double price. But I won't go for an 8-bit-Canon C XYZ plus Atomos Ninja...

I'll be in W.A. in April anyway, maybe I get one there ?

In the two months that I've had my 8-bit-Canon C XYZ without Atomos Ninja, it has totally paid for itself + an EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS + about a third of the BMC that I continue to w8 patiently for. March 3rd, it will pay for the Ninja 2 as well. A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Good to hear that! Unfortunately my filming doesn't make any money, it does actually cost me money, but it makes me happy. I'm just fed up - more with the information policy of BMD than with waiting that I'd switch - and do my next film with something better than my 7D.

Trust me...my new 8-bit Canon C XYZ (with or without Atomos Ninja) is MUCH MUCH better than my 7D. Of course, I'm a vidiot and am not making films.

So you're still waiting as well Marc? Seems Texas is as forsaken as Germany

While you embrace your C "xyz" for the time being I'll continue to rent either FS700 or Epic depending on job requirements... and I'm really liking the FS700 for all the "videoey" jobs so far... ;(

Got my Camera 2 weeks ago from TELTEC - but I placed my Order on April 19th in 2012...
So If you someone wants to rent in Leipzig - send me a pm.

Nice to see at least some cameras shipping. But to bad that they are still mostly april preorders. will probably wait a lot longer with my november order.

Sorry for you...
I pre-ordered in April 2012...Still waiting
No news!!!

You really should stop dreaming

Yesterday I asked german Blackmagic distributor TELTEC if they have any news. They told me that they don't have any information how many BMCC cameras will arrive in the future and that they are unable to plan. But they hope that the situation will get better in the next few weeks. Me too!

I don't think it could be worse!!!

^^

its almost 1 year after announcement..
Please give us new some new infos blackmagic..

Andi and other customers, I don't know if you will like the read this fresh news from German distributor:

"I just talked to the german distributor and they told me that they didn´t receive the 10 units per week (As promised in january).
They received 2 cameras last week and before this there was nothing delivered from Blackmagic.

Our distributor can´t tell any deliverytimes as they don´t know which amount of cameras will come in and when this will be."


One more fail...

German reseller Teltec reported yesterday on it's Facebook page, that they've received nine units yesterday! I hope that it will go on like this

sounds like a contradiction.. did you mean that the distributor or your reseller got 2 units? why would teltec get 9 units then

Sorry, I meant the reseller, of course.

no i meant alex ... he said something about the german distributor only got 2 and the week before 0

Yes Andi,

Marcotec told that on monday from a mail with the German distributor...
Maybe this German distributor received the 9 Teltec camera on tuesday!
Anyway, unfortunately, Marcotec didn't seems to receive more than THE demo camera

Enjoy for this 9 happy customers from Teltec

Yeah 9 for the (I guess) biggest distributor (or preorderer) of the BMCC in Germany.. "great"
But hey, better than nothing!

Currently feels like christmas.. mine is en route from Melbourne but still not here.. aaah.. daily shipment tracking check

@Soeren: I am completely with you, ours is enroute from Japan, arriving in cologne on tuesday.


Greetings to the forbidden city

Hehe, grats! Did you get some friends over there to buy it for you or a certain forum member?
Hm let's see what custom fees we have to pay

Hey I'm just a "Zugezogener" and don't care about this whole feud thing going on

I just know (by talking to Teltec) that they ordered even before NAB 2012 (before the announcement of the camera). Thats why they're getting "all" the cameras in Germany. Before NAB they preordered about 150 units. But it still makes me wonder why B&H who probably preordered later are fulfilling july preorders.. (thats why adorama fulfilled far more preorders than B&H)

I read through all your information about the shipping, Christine. f.e. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4916&start=430

Still doesn't make sense to me why Teltec haven't fulfilled those early 150 preorders by now. (compared to Adorama and B&H for example).
Maybe you could just jump in and explain it for me.

Thank you for your help in advance!

Cameras are apparently distributed "proportionally" to each regional distributor. There is only 1 distributor for the whole of the EU, Africa and Middle east. There is 1 distributor for just the US. So basically the cameras have to be shared out so much that all the resellers in the EU, Africa and Middle east are only getting a tiny amount or none at all each week. Apparently this is fair and proportional.

I would have thought that if the distribution was truly proportional, then the size of the region wouldn't matter because the largest regions would get the most number of units. But this is clearly not the case.

Fortune smiled on me - a little too much

By a happy coincidence this week i had the chance to get a BMCC from am small shop in Germany - today the package arrived... One hour later i got an email from another shop where i pre-orderd in August that my cam is on stock.

Is anyone interested to buy my second BMCC? Unopend with invoice and VAT, located near Frankfurt.

And congrats to the new baby, Tobias

yes, if you don't wanna have DaVinci Resolve included!

Yes thats right! I love the software much more than the camera

So you are selling yours?

So I hear from resellers that the cameras (Blackmagic 2,5K) are still coming in at a very low rate (about 10 a week)at the german blackmagic distributor.. Christine can you confirm that?

No volume improvements with shipping (with the old sensor)?

why is nobody concerned about the shipping volumes of the 2,5k anymore? I ordered at 4 different resellers (long ago) and still dont have my camera..

Oh we are but concern does not help to produce cameras i think ?
