5D Mark 3 Queue @ B&H

[frisk]

Mine arrives tomorrow. but man, reading some threads on the forum about some people receiving faulty cameras scares me 

Look on the bright side - you are not hearing anything from the vast majority of the people who already got their cameras - possibly because they are too busy having fun with their new toy to have any time to hang out on the forum 

Personally I am still waiting....but the UPS truck should be here within the next 3 hours....it takes a bit longer for Adorama to deliver to Europe than within the US.

UPS delivered my camera 20 minutes ago.  Haven't tested it yet since I'm at the office.  Will test it later today.

Mine is on the way, shipped yesterday.  Unfortunately I ordered 2 day shipping so will get it Monday .  I am outside CONUS, so overnight was an additional $75.

Just FYI for those interested - I ordered mine Sun, Mar 4, 2012 at 10:02 PM.  I inquired yesterday as to status and received the following reply:

Thank you for contacting the Customer Service Department at B&H Photo Video and Pro Audio.

We received our first shipment of these today and they were all shipped out already. We expect to receive more of these next week.

Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

Thank you, we appreciate your business.

Cancel it if you can!  Just get it from Unique Photo:  http://store.uniquephoto.com/e/index.php/canon-eos-5d-mark-iii-ef-24-105-lk-5260b009.html.  If you add that to your cart and make it next day air shipping, shipping is free.  I promise.  I did it.

I don't know why anyone orders from B&H over Unique Photo.  I am seriously obsessed with Unique.

xxx527xx arrived today !

Interesting workflow - see other thread on getting .CR2 into LR
ACR (with update) works great, but extra steps if using LR

Any idea on the status of body only 5DIII inventory at B&H?

[jerodkaram]

B&H order number ...536XX just changed from "sent to warehouse" to an ACTUAL UPS TRACKING NUMBER within the last hour.

I pre-ordered a 5D3 body only--no kit.  Confirmation email March 2 @ 1:21 AM.  From previous conversations with a B&H customer service rep, I know I was somewhere between #540 and #550 on the wait list.

Hang tight fellas (& ladies)!  They're definitely moving out the door!  :-)

Called Norman Camera at 9:30am PST 3/23 they were out of the 5D3 bodies but had kits available. They broke up a kit and sold me the body.  So confirmed for shipping tonight will be here early next week.

Called BH and canceled my pre-order i placed with them.  Order number 635xx

[peederj]

...And it's here!

Buy.com seems to still have stock for body only 5DIII's.

Just called them and it looks like I'll have mine early next week. I'll cancel my B&H pre-order once I have the tracking number.

UPS managed to not screw up the next day air to Ontario, so I received my 5D3 from B&H this morning (order #53xxx).  Looking forward to playing with it a lot this weekend.  From some casual usage so far, I am extremely happy, coming from a 1D3 and 5D2.  It's basically everything I've ever wanted in a DSLR.

That's weird. My order # is 526xx and I've received no updates yet!

[prayharder]

I just got mine, and I am charging the battery :-)

[V8Beast]

Nevermind. Mine just shipped out yesterday evening! B&H usually e-mails me a shipping confirmation on all my orders, but not this time. Weird.
