What model is currently shipping? I ask because the photos on the amazon page show blue accents on the tripod but customer images dont?

that's not the model (the one with the blue accents) that shipped to me. as a matter of fact the picture looks completely different from the one that I bought. you might want to check with the seller to make sure what you would receive. the one that I bought back in May was for cameras, it has a ball head but without the pan handle. it looks more like the carbon fiber version of this that they sell. this tripod that's pictured is either a new product or a updated version of mine. hope this helps.

Well, that's it for me. Just got another notice that the shipment date has been pushed back to 4 Sep 06. Thanks for the tip about Adorama. I'm going to check out their seller rating/prices. I'm really irritated with Amazon right now since I ordered this camera from them (not a vendor) at a good sale price. About $750 for the camera body with both lenses. Of course, that doesn't mean much if they don't ship the camera. The aggravation of waiting over two months isn't worth it. And of course, the page still states that Amazon ships in 1-2 weeks.

The camera itself weighs 2lbs in the bag. The tripod is a bit less than 3lbs in it's bag. My guess is the shipping pkg was about 8-10 lbs with all the gear and manual.

Ye, i saw on some sites that they will start shipping 08/31 and 09/01. I just received an e-mail from Amazon regarding this question and their answer was "I've checked the availability for "Canon PowerShot SX20IS" and see it hasn't been released yet and the expected release date is not known. We rely on the manufacturer for release date information. We'll make sure to update our website listing when we know more."I'm hoping they'll have it by 01/09. The other seller on amazon (OneCall) says it's in stock.. but not sure how!

I finally cancelled my order with Amazon and ordered from Butterfly. I just received the camera today (only 4 days after placing the order), and I am so happy with it.

Thanks for coming back to respond. I was wondering what actually shipped with the lens.

Has anyone figured out how to contact the manufacturer? Ours came with a screw missing! The tripod cannot be brought to its full height without it...

The changed plants from what I can gather, which put a kink in getting out x1, m9 and s2's. Some European people are getting orders (trickling) - I'd guess amazon will be able to begin shipping at the end of feb beginning of march. I called Leica USA and they said 6 weeks - that was about a week ago. They also suggested there would be no benefit in canceling with amazon and buying from a local shop. "Amazon are as likely to get them as anyone else" which begs the question though - how many preorders does amazon have on this thing?

Actually, as of now, Jr.com has the black version for 399.99, free shipping. They were out of stock and I ordered on 11/7/08, now today they just emailed me that the camera is shipping! I can't wait! Great deal and great price.

I'd also like to get at least an estimate on availability. It's been listed here since September, but there's no anticipated ship date. We're very interested in this camcorder, particularly for its audio capabilities, but Amazon is the only place we've seen mention if it, and there doesn't seem to be any info re: an availability date anywhere, and I don't see the camera listed on the Aiptek website. Are we talking weeks, or months?

@Hugh - by the time I get to evaluating and posting, many reviews will be posted. I'm leaving in a week for a multi-month hike 3 days after the camera is due to arrive.Interestingly, the Sony website now says they're taking pre-orders and it will ship 3/17. I've got my e-mail saying it will ship 3/12 so I'll see by the end of today what happened.

We had a shipping mix-up with Amazon. One of our pallets contained the wrong model camera and we were unable to remove the pallet from Amazon's warehouses in time. This seems to be what you received. If you provide your order number; we will send you the correct model + a free gift for the inconvenience.

looks like this bad boy is already in consumers hands overseas. I pre-ordered mine... I really would like to see the delivery date move closer, i am paying for overnight shipping to make sure I have it for a memorial weekend trip!!! come on Kodak... come on amazon!!! i really want this new gadget!Many of the sites now list the release date as May 11th... actually ship by may 11th... I hope that Amazon gets 'em out fast.

Going back through Amazon orders it looks like I got mine in April of 2013, and I did not have any registration problems.Also looking at the order it say Sold by Mel Pierce Camera, I don't know if that is the same as who is selling it here. Hope this helps. And remember since it is through Amazon, if it turns out not to have a USA Warranty you can always send it back for free. Hope this helped. Bob

Thanks - i did end up also e-mailing Canon and they said they are having a backorder issue. I am hoping it gets resolved soon. i did see last week when they were available and I am kicking myself for not grabbing it then.

Just received the camera today. waited forever for amazon. ended up buying it from tigerdirect.com. came with free shipping (fast too...ordered it on thurs). so far i'm really impressed with the camera. can't believe that even after this whole thread, amazon still maintains that the product has "not been released". I totally understand if they, for some reason, can't get their hands on this product. But at least update the page to say "out of stock", which is more accurate in this scenario. I initially thought that it wasn't going to come out till June ANYWHERE based on amazon's response to my email inquiry. Good thing I came across this thread. Thanks guys.

Peter is NPS and got his shipment directly from Nikon via B&H; Photo, not Amazon. I pre-ordered D800E with Amazon at 12:22 am (PST) Feb. 6, 2012, and have not heard anything yet.
