UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

I believe a lot of people are very eager on getting reliable reviews! Me too!bholliman said:
But seeing shipment being pushed further into the future seems to show that Canon is not willing to give this lens to customers as well as reviewers.
Seems they have to handle some issues on this lens - FW, QC, what else.
Seems we'll have to be patient a few weeks longer :-\

I'm slotted to have early access to both the 24-105L II and the 16-35L III, but it seems like the ship date keeps getting pushed back. I'm a little surprised. B&H is saying shipping for the 16-35L III is supposed to begin October 6th, but I still haven't seen the lens.
The 24-105L II is probably not going to start shipping until November. The surprising thing about this is that Canon has missed out maximizing the kit price of the launch with the 5D Mark IV. People that aren't early adopters are more value conscious and will want to see some kind of discount on that lens in a kit.

P.S. Did anyone else note that they are advertising 10 aperture blades on this lens? I can't remember reviewing a lens with ten aperture blades. Using odd numbered blades are valued for the sunbursts when stopped down, so I'm interested in seeing what this one does.

There is a price difference in the Netherlands. It is about 60 euro cheaper if you buy the combination of 5D4 and the 24-105 IIxps said:

Funnily enough, I was searching this morning for these and got a result showing 'in stock' at Panamoz in uK (well known grey importer) but when I went on site....'out of stock'

I seem to be one of the earlier receivers of the new lens in Singapore. Obtained it together with the 5D4 as a kit from my dealer last Wednesday.
Nothing scientific done to test the lens (I sold off my older 24-105 so a direct comparison cannot be done) but the overall impression is good. https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4065833#forum-post-58516680
A couple of sample shots on my blog at http://engloy.elcreations.org. Resized though so not meant for pixel peepers

O wow, today I read new information about the arrival of the 24-105 II here in the Netherlands.
Expected arrival....december 2016
Well, hopefully in time to make it a christmaspresent :
I can't place this information against the review of Photographyblog.com and the copy of the lens they used. Is it a pre-production copy?
