Curious about B&H & mkiii shipments

[Christian Bobadilla]

Ordered March 20 and I'm going to receive my Camera tomorrow! 

BODY ONLY!

Read on another form that there's 1000 people on the B&H 5D3 waiting list.  Wow.

Anyone who ordered after 5/23 get their shipping notice yet?

Order No: 101999xxxx
Order Date: 03/25/12
Status: Backordered

Mind you, Its an intl. order and have been out-of-pocket a fair whack for over a month! Here's hoping my order will be despatched in the coming shipment.

Ordered a body on 3/13/12, received it today. It has a 3 in the sixth position L-R of the serial number and has the 1.12 firmware installed.

ordered April 17th from J&R
just got an email saying that they're shipping it today!             

edit: my order was the body only

[goclaygo]

ordered body only on 03/21/2012, received it today from B&H

I have "0" in my serial number position.

what does it mean? fixed? taped? leaky?

onecall.com has 5d mark iii (body only) in stock. 
I just got a notification e-mail.
I also ordered a lens with it, and I had to talk to the CSR to get the double rebate applied.
Note Onecall salesmen aren't informed about the double rebate for some reason.
Point them to:

and ask them to confirm it with their Purchasing department.   They'll correct your invoice.


I also called J&R and they said today they received 20 bodies today, shipped them all out.
There's still 'a couple dozen' on the queuu.

Thank you sooo much for referring OneCall.com! I just ordered mine with overnight shipping    I'm just hoping I don't get a bad surprise stating that they ran out before I got my order in, that would just be horrid!  Did you order from there as well?

You didn't seriously think I'd post that without getting my order in first, did ya?
 

I didn't do overnight shipping - I'm just happy to get one in reasonable speed.
BTW, I found out via their 'in stock' e-mail notification.  I'll have to remember that for next time.

That is truly agonizing to hear, I ordered mine 4/17 from B&H and I am guessing I am at least two weeks away.  But good for you.
