The Fujifilm X-T2 is Shipping Now… at Least at Some Stores :-)

twshiping-600x396

I know, there is an official “shipping embargo” on the Fujifilm X-T2 set at September 8. And yes, we also know it since this post, that Fujifilm already shipped the X-T2 to stores.

Well, it seems that some stores are just as excited to ship the camera, as customers are excited to finally get it. So it’s the case of Canadian Californian Store OC Camera, who officially said on their instagram page here:

“Now Available FujiFilm X-T2 Mirrorless Digital Camera at OC Camera!! We already had our good friend @chrisdiset pick up the first one to come in stock so be sure to stop by today or check out our website“

thanks for the link ;)

Fuji X-T2s on the Way – BHphoto Gets First Batch Tomorrow, but Shipping Will Start on September 8

Fuji X-T2 BHphoto

submitted via guest post feature by Steve

“I just called B & H to check on the status of my July 7 X-T2 order because I’m leaving tomorrow (8/31) for a 2 week trip to Ireland. They told me they were getting several thousand in tomorrow. Of course.”

ADMIN NOTE 1: If the information Steve got is correct, then it seems BHphoto will have a quite large stock of X-T2’s available tomorrow.

ADMIN NOTE 2: Keep in mind that Fuji has some kind of “shipping embargo” on products (in the case of the X-T2 the deadline is September 8). This means that, although stores get the products earlier, they have to wait for the shipping embargo to end, before they can start delivering. Don’t ask me why stores have to sit on those X-T2 boxes for one more week.

And what about your pre-order? What is your store saying? We have an X-T2 Pre-orders thread also at our Fuji X Forum here.

Meike just announced two new lenses for the APS-C mirrorless systems. A new 12mm f/2.8 (Chinese presentation page at MKgrip) and a 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye lens.

I couldn’t find any specific mention in the press release, but all the latest Meike lenses where also available for Fuji X Mount, and so I guess will also this latest 2 additions.

Samyang already offers manual focus lenses with the same FL, the [shoplink 12946 ebay]Samyang 8mm[/shoplink] and [shoplink 37811 ebay]Samyang 12mmF2[/shoplink].
