My Canon EOS-1D X Has Arrived!

Hysterical -- the pancake lens on a 1dx. I bet you don't find too many of those in the field. I agree with iris chrome that it looks very cute though.

Put a big honkin' 400mm f/2.8L II IS lens on there and now we're talkin!! 8)

Just got my B/H tracking number , and it didn't get here in time for Jr Nationals, but it is 'in the mail' finally!

Wow! Cant wait to read your first impression shooting with a production model...enjoy...while the rest of us are still waiting for our copy! :-[

Congrats, Craig - that's great news!

Availability in the United States should come on Thursday or Friday, I’ve confirmed this with B&H.

Thanks for the 'official' confirmation. I'm hoping they get mine packed and shipped on Thursday, since standard shipping from B&H to me is overnight.

I get next day shipping too... But I will be working in NY... It would suck if I get the camera shipped to my home and then I won't be back until the 16th...

Hi, can i ask about your order number? I want to compare it to mine. Thanx and congrats!

Oh, I dunno. I'm looking forward to the combo - since it's basically no deeper than the body, it'll fit in a Lowepro S&F Utility Bag 100 AW, which will fit in the outer pocket of my computer satchel - likely I'll bring it along on overnight trips whereas otherwise it would be the S100 only. Also, it'll pair nicely with the 70-200/2.8 IS II when the latter is a little long - bringing the pancake is like having a second lens without really carrying a second lens!

Congrats!! Can I ask...what was your order number (as in 1019###xx for web orders)?

Why'd it come with such a crappy-looking body cap?

 

[Gcon]

Does it have the light-leak issue, and do the AF points illuminate when you want them to?

I just received confirmation from B&H Customer Service that they expect a shipment by the end of the week and my backorder will be filled from this shipment. For those interested my Order# isxxxx8874xx

It's a 40mm pancake lens?

I guess as I ordered 3 days after opened.l. That would probably mean 3 more months. :-[ :-[

It's ok I'm just kidding. Message boards on the internet are very difficult to read into that stuff. Much better on the phone or in person.

Sometimes it's perfectly clear. This one was pretty much a 50/50 chance haha.

But I should've known 'cause LeeJay has quite a few posts here...

 

[chemistone]

Yea,

I've got the same.... card reader. At least I'm half way there.

Enjoy your new camera!

FWIW, I was just told the following by B&H:

[quote author=B&H Online CSR]
We are expecting for them to arrive by the end of the week and your order will be covered in this shipment...It appears that the Canon sent our initial order in multiple shipments and you will be covered on this one that is coming in now.

Wow - after reading your post, I must have somehow got my order in slightly ahead of yours - not bad considering I was golfing and put my order in on my iPhone between holes...

I talked with my local camera dealer, I can still be #1 on his waiting list, since the previous #1 cancelled out. I'm waiting to see some real reviews. Is it worth twice the value of my 1D MK IV, for example.
