Where is my backordered EOS-M w/22 STM lens?

[Swphoto]

I also ordered M + 22 on 7/7. Called B&H this morning -- they're waiting on new stock and it should ship in 5 - 7 more days. Did not say it was discontinued, rather just delayed. I can wait it out.

I think that's what they're expecting, but it's clear that they're not able to nail down the dates, for whatever reason. A number of people who had 7/18 ship dates confirmed by calling B&H previously have been bumped to 7/25.

Just looked and B&H is currently listing the Black EOS M w/EF-M 22mm f/2 STM Lens as IN STOCK!

Hope they start shipping the older orders soon!

I just received an email from B&H telling me that my back-ordered copy had shipped; presumably I'm not alone....

Yeah, my order from 7/5 just shipped too.

I would assume that before they listed the item as "In Stock" they would make sure their stock covers the back orders, so I hope that everyone's back orders are shipping today.

I ordered mine on 7/9 (the last day of sale) and it said at that time estimated to be in stock 7/13 (a Saturday, which of course BH is closed).  On Sunday night, 7/14, I got an email saying order was shipped with expected delivery 7/18 (I had chosen UPS 3 day shipping).  Sure enough, today 7/18 the camera arrived!

Not sure why I ordered 7/9 and got it already but people ordered before me have not.  I ordered the white one, did those of you who did not get it order the black instead?

Ordered on 7/9 as well (black body though) and I got the email tonight that it shipped. Should be seeing it sometime in the middle of next week.

Ordered mine Friday 7/5 (w/an original availability of 7/11) and just got an email yesterday from B&H telling me it was shipping with scheduled delivery today 7/19.

I'm in Queens so shipping is fast here.

And....they're out!

I've been paying attention to my B&H order too, and yeah, it's frustrating. I ordered the same kit on 7/5 when the expected availability date was 7/11. This was well before the $299 deal cutoff date of 7/9! I doubt there's anything nefarious going on here, just a delayed shipment from Canon. At least, that's what I'm hoping, because I already have the lens mount adapter. Patience is a virtue, as they say--but who in the hell are "they"? 

Same story - ordered on 07/05 when it said expected availability was 07/11... Then it went to 07/18... Then it went to 07/25... I did live chat with Customer Service on 07/17 and they said they would have someone in Sales send me an email when to expect my camera... Never got the email, but thanks to this thread checked my order status and it has been sent to the warehouse... I'm just curious why orders placed on 07/09 are already shipping and mine is still being processed? Oh well, I hope it gets to me before I leave on vacation...

Well... hmmm... yesterday, along with others here, my 7/5 order was upgraded to "in stock... sent to the warehouse...", but unlike others I have yet to receive a shipping confirmation email. Unfortunately, that no doubt means my EOS M will not ship until Monday because they close at 2 PM on Fridays and are closed all day Saturday. I wonder what the hold up was? 

[sdsr]

Mine arrived this afternoon (the battery is still charging...); I was surprised to see that the box I received is a kit that includes the speedlight as well as the 22mm lens, i.e., the kit that's the current B&H EOS-M deal for $399, but they still charged me only $299.  Have others been receiving this too?  I hadn't planned to use the camera with any sort of flash, so I never noticed whether this was part of the original bargain, but this was a pleasant surprise.

Interesting, and lucky you! As I said above, my order status was upgraded to "In stock, sent to warehouse..." with plenty of time for it to be shipped on Friday. But it didn't. Now I'm wondering if the supply they got was the kit you received and some were inadvertently shipped out to fulfill the $299 deal orders before the mistake was realized. I'm hoping mine will ship on Monday, but your post has me thinking it might not.

Update: tracking # received on 7/21, and the camera shipped today. Cool! But I'm still wondering if anyone else got a similar SUPER DUPER deal as sdsr.

I ordered mine on7/7 and received a UPS tracking number today, so it is on it's way

[privatebydesign]

Got mine today. Like sdsr, I ordered the EOS-M and 22 kit from B&H and got the box with the 90EX too. I can't tell you how impressed I am with B&H for honouring the orders they had, I don't know who paid for my 90EX but it wasn't me. I know Adorama were cancelling the over orders they took.

Having played with the 90EX now I rank it a very close second, and far better value, to the ST-E2 as a remote controller, and it is tiny. As for the EOS-M, it is very early days but WTF is everybody moaning about with the AF? It is so much faster than any Canon P&S and the file quality blows even the G1X into the weeds. Granted with the EF adapter in dull room light the AF is challenged, but I can use all the lenses I have! First impressions are very good, this thing is superb. Looking forwards to the daylight tomorrow to see what it can actually do in decent light.

I knew I had been hanging on to that vast array of FD lenses I had for a reason, not least of which they are practically worthless! But I'm getting an EOS-M - FD convertor next, just to play with.
