Lenses / New 600mm f/4L IS Mk II - availability?

« on: August 04, 2012, 01:00:09 PM »

I am wondering if anyone has any experience with buying one of these and/or any insight as to when they might be available.  My local camera store (Canadian) has told me that it could be anywhere from 6 months to a year before one would be available and that is only if I order it now.  This seems a bit crazy, but then look at how long it took Canon to get the 1D X out.  Anyone have any ideas as to how long it would take, or what the "holdup" is?  Why so long to get one?  Thanks.
