      Some Shops have the RF 100-400 on stock here in Austria, but I haven't seen the RF 16 so far.

      Many other RF lenses (24-70/2.8L, 100-500) are showing up on B&H and Amazon as 'more on the way' and 'in stock soon'.

      Is there RF extension tube small enough for the 16mm f/2.8?

      Would a 13mm extension tube work with the 26mm lens? What is the issue to look out for?

      Looks like a lot of people on Europe have gotten lucky! Anyone get their preorders in the US yet? From where?

      There are quite a lot of options for extension tubes for RF mount.
