Official statement from Blackmagic on new camera shipping

[/p/]

I just spoke to my local BMD reseller (they are 2 mins away from BMD HQ) They spoke to BMD 2 days ago and were told the cameras are already shipping, however they had no ETA on when that particular store will receive the cameras. He also told me that they don't know where cameras will be shipped first and that 30+ cameras have been pre-ordered (I asked what the pre-order list is like). 

 

I asked about the original BMCC, how many units they received and how long it took to get the. He said They received 6 units of the original BMCC then 4 days later they received another 10. There didn't seem to be any delay between the camera arriving in Aus and the US (except for a few very large stores in the US who apparently got to make an order on the cameras well before they were announced) maybe this will be the case again where the largest retailers got to make orders in advance before other stores.
