You must have hit a very short window of opportunity. I've looked at the product page several times today and it has always said out of stock. I ordered mine 3-4 weeks ago and it hasn't shipped yet. you might want to ask customer service.

No - I got mine in 3 days, and it shows that it's in stock now. Must have been a glitch.

Why is there such a delay with the release date of this camera? Normally Amazon is good with having products in stock, when I read that other stores were carrying this item and Amazon still didn't have it sorta makes me wonder whats going on!!!

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?

Im in the same situation pre order sep 18... still waiting, the same messages as you guys. The only problem with amazon is that when you send an email to know whats going on they always answer with the generic emails of were sorry, bla bla, you can cancel anytime... I really wanted to have this cam before dec 5th... now ill have to travel for a month with out it.

Thank you for the question. But your expectation cannot be met. Because, this camera is sent from Japan. Probably it is also early and a week will come. I am sorry for the ability not to meet the expectation.

As you may know, the camera is out. Mine is due to arrive from Amazon tomorrow. (I pre-ordered back in February)For some sample photos taken in hands of real users here's a link <<Please note: at the bottom another photographer "phat-slug" included 14 pictures taken that can be blown up for evaluation>>http://forums.dpreview.com/forums/readflat.asp?forum=1007&thread;=37922920

Hey, I don't know where you live, but I just bought mine in black on 9/10 here in NYC. By the way, I've been waiting for Amazon to have this camera too. I pre-ordered both of them (black and silver), and never received an email saying that they were finally available to purchase. So, I took things into my own hands and found it myself. The camera is the BEST camera I've ever tried! I recently bought the fx500 from panasonic and the fujifilm f100. And before those two, I was a canon powershot sd500 owner. I can go into more detail, but I thought you would like to know of something I wrote on the forum page for the LX3 on photographyblog.com: Hey y'all, Sorry it has taken me a long while to respond to this little discussion, but just yesterday 9/10/08, I FINALLY bought the LX3 in black here in NYC at a family run Jewish store called 17thstreetphoto in the Photography district in NYC. I spoke with a super friendly man named Doug who told me that they got the silver and black ones 2 days ago from yesterday. they have 50 each. So, I went down there and immediately bought one. They have a 7 days no questions asked return policy so I'm trying it out like a crazy man. I attached the website. Keep in mind that if you mention the fact that on EBAY they have the price listed at $475, they will honor it in the store even though they have it priced at $499. Any questions ask me. But the purchasing experience with them was excellent.

Bob, did you ever find out? I just ordered the camera and want to know the same thing! Thanks for any help.

Sweet - I just got an email from Amazon saying to expect delivery between the 10th and 29th. That wasn't so comforting, but if I view my order status, it looks like the estimated ship date is December 7th.

I ordered May 26, 2013 and it shipped today (July 7, 2013) which is within the long window promised when I ordered. Seems like they now have it in stock.

A scam. The camera is out of stock at the regular price of $2700 for the body only. Why would any real dealer sell it for less? I once got tricked when I was starting out by one of these scam shops. These guys should all be in prison. Check reseller ratings online. They'll probably be listed with many acts of fraud.

I preordered this from Amazon when it became available, and got an e-mail yesterday saying that the expected delivery date was the 13th. Since I picked overnight shipping, I take that to mean that they expect to ship my order by Monday, but obviously can't confirm that this is going to happen.Edit: Like those below, got the order update the day after it should have shipped.

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 just contacted Canon Tech Support. The Canon XA10 has shipped to Dealers!!!!! I just noticed Norman Camera's in Michigan has posted it as "in stock". However, I plan to purchase from One Call or Amazon.

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.

6th ave is all sold out, I ordered it from amazon for $499.00 but the whole 1-2 months thing is starting to piss me off. I will most likely upgrade to the next model up and purchase it from another seller besides amazon. Got the link from my son that said ships within 24-48 hours, but with the holidays and all I didn't order until four days later, Oh well I know it my fault but still rather irritating.
