Availability of Z5U?
I placed an order for a Z5U with B&H two weeks ago (took advantage of the NAB promotion, ordered a wireless mic as well for the $250 rebate) only to find out that the camera is on back order - not just with B&H but several other merchants. Their website now says "This is not a regularly stocked item. Delivery in 7-14 business days." I've not yet received any word that the camera is back in stock. Does anyone have any intel on the status of this camera with Sony? It's only a year old, I hope they're not scaling back production already?

Really...oh man.. I'm using BH and have the camera in my shopping cart..I was hoping to place an order in the next few days...Ahhhh, that sucks!
|
I was back ordered on my z5 also, I got it in 9 days time.

In the current economic climate and the need to keep costs down, I think you'll find a lot of stores cutting back on tying up money in stock.

try Armato's -- often have equipment others don't.
but for B&H just call their pro video dept on sunday and ask -- their buyers are in constant contact with Sony. - charlie |
If b&h says 7-14 days they are talking business days, so you should have your camera soon Sam.

Thanks - I've been waiting since May 17, missed one shoot already and have another coming up Saturday!

Hurray, I got a ship confirmation notice from B&H today, but after speaking with them I learned they got a very limited number. Hope you got yours as well?
