I had a kit version pre-ordered on Amazon and it has shipped today (tracking number is live and everything). Expected delivery is November 12th!
Is this with the 16-50 kit lens, I thought this would not be coming out till Jan?
@Everlast66 – As far as I know, and as far as was advertised, it is the 16-50 lens. It had November as the ship date since the product was announced – where did you hear January?
does somebody know how the sensor of the 6 handels legacy wideangels? can we expect a performance like the 5n? is it a different sensors?
Does anyone know when the NEX-6 will ship from Sonystore online for EDU pre-orders in CA? I haven’t seen any update to my order from 10/15.
Yes… Please. Any updates to Sony store shipments? I ordered on 9/12 and my order status still shows estimated ship 9/13. When will they start to ship? It’s annoying that I ordered from Sony, two months ago, and people that ordered on Amazon are already receiving or at least getting tracking numbers
Agreed! That was what I was noticing. I thought pre ordering from the source would help receive it sooner, in this case it does not seem to have helped at all.
In either event, I just hope the Sony store orders ship soon!
Usually it is not best practice to get the cameras from the source. They are not a professional warehouse like the big online camera shops or Amazon.
Cameras are manufactured somewhere and being shipped to the shop warehouses at the same time. Don’t expect a Sony shop to get them earlier and even if they would there logistic would never be professional enough to handle the orders on time…
That’s my believe X’D
Admin. Thanks for the heads up on availability. As a result of your advisory I have ordered from BH Photo (vis-a-vis your link 🙂 ). Amazon will not ship internationally and Adorama still has me on pre-order, which I will now cancel. BTW, goes on sale in Japan on 11/16, albeit at a higher price and no english menus.
Cheers…
Amazon now was the kit version in stock as well. Just order one this morning with 1 day shipping is estimated to be here on Wednesday can’t wait…
I got my shipment update from Sony Direct, it’s ready for shipment and should be on a truck to me 11/9. (USA)
