Is this heavy delay only a problem in US? I have received my first R5 on 31.July. The second one I have ordered on 06. August and received it on 09.september.

Yup shortly after I posted I caught my error. Guess who’s ready to rush thru 2020.We are still in September.
I feel your pain though. I ordered in the 9th and haven’t got my camera while some folks have gotten several already.
Ordered 7/9 from Adorama. Granted I had to wait until late in the day. Update from Adorama today, they said:Well, I'm in Canada and I ordered my EOS R5 back on July 23. Still waiting. Sometimes I think we are in the backwaters of civilization when it comes to getting stuff.
Mine shipped yesterday - Sounds like it might have been a big batch if it's taken them over a day to ship out all the R5s they received!Just got an email from B&H that my R5 shipped today. Anyone else get that? I ordered on the first day but not for several hours after they were accepting orders
They had sent me an email a couple weeks ago that said it would probably ship on the 28th....sounds like they got them a bit earlier. After reading that article about Adorama saying late October I had adjusted my expectations...so I'm even happier now!Mine shipped yesterday - Sounds like it might have been a big batch if it's taken them over a day to ship out all the R5s they received!
Interesting! I had an email a couple weeks ago saying it would ship on 16th, the one that said it was delayed to 21st. Maybe the two different batches were merged in to one larger one, or canon is ramping up production due to the demand. Either way, glad to hear your good news!They had sent me an email a couple weeks ago that said it would probably ship on the 28th....sounds like they got them a bit earlier.

That's a really weird email "Won't be coming back in stock" - Like, EVER?From the on-line store Currys who surprisingly provided my R5 this week: “Just to say the item you asked us to email you about, EOS R5 Mirrorless Camera - Body Only, won’t be coming back in stock. “
it‘s a matter of chance to get one at present.

Are you a conspiracy theorist?Let's start a new rumour that canon has cancelled the r5 line due to overheating based on that one email you received.
Are you a conspiracy theorist?
He spelled it rumour so he is clearly on the right side.Sounds like he is satirizing them. Or maybe even going so far as to satirise them. Not sure.
Hopefully but they sure are getting a LOT of orders!While I have not followed Canon' new product release for too long, this is the first time I have seen a Canon camera and lenses were short in supply. This means either there are too many pre orders or the supply is in short possibly due to covid-19. I am finally happy to see more stock coming in and pre-orders getting delivered. As for me I will wait for the price to drop around ~$3k mark. I am of the opinion R5 is way overpriced for what it is when comparing the competition.
