Fujifilm USA Manager: “Fujifilm X-T4: Lots of Pre-Orders and Available Mid-May”
Fujifilm USA manager Michael Bulbenko made a 10 minutes video on Instagram introducing the Fujifilm X-T4.
Just as the top Manager Toshi Iida said a few days ago in this must see interview, also Michael confirms the strong pre-orders for the Fujifilm X-T4.
But strong pre-orders in times of Coronavirus COVID-19 also introduce shipping difficulties.
Regarding the shipping, I must say I am confused. Let’s sum up the different official statements we got so far in chronological order.
- March 26: Fujifilm Japan issues a press release, saying that the black X-T4 will ship as expected in late April, but the silver one has been postponed to late May
- April 2: Fujifilm UK manager says that both colors, silver and black will ship in late April, but body only version. The kit versions will follow “weeks later”
- April 9: Fujifilm USA manager says that nothing will ship in April, and all will ship in the 2nd or 3rd week of May
Maybe every country will get a different shipping time? That would be unusual for Fujifilm, but in these days everything is unusual.
If we look at stores, BHphoto marks it as available April 30, while Adorama expects it on May 4.
