C200: Shipping Date
- Thread starter dave12781
- Start date
I'm told between the last week of July and the first two weeks of August. So very soon!
Is that for the kit with the 24-105, or the pre-orders with just the body?

When I was at Canon Burbank the other night, one of the Canon reps, in an unguarded moment, was asked when it is delivering and he said, "mid-August", then he looked like he quickly regretted saying that ;-) I asked Loren Simons and he said, "August 38th" (kiddingly). Honestly, the reps probably don't know or have been sworn to secrecy.

I ask everyday for a firm ETA and get August as the response.

I hearing rumors that c200 Kit with lens will be shipping next week. and that Camera kit beginning of September. If this is true this will be very sad news

What means Camera kit? C200B?
I think he means the C200 kit with just the body. The C200B I believe is shipping in October.

B&H is saying, "Beginning of August 2017" for the kit. I think those of us who ordered the camera only or C200B are going to still be waiting a while.

Well that sucks. I'd bet most people ordering this camera at launch either already own that kit lens or don't because they don't want it...
They say October for the B and Sept for the kit, but nothing for the C200 body alone, so here's hoping Terry's rep is right about August.

If you really want/need it, just do what people do with still cams, buy the kit w/lens(because it always seems like there is an over abundance of them and never enough 'body only', at least with stills) and turn around and sell the lens. You may have to hang onto the lens for a few months to unload, but not the end of the world. It's exactly what I did when I bought my 5D3. I was down the list for body only, but on launch day B&H had stacks of kits sitting in the warehouse. Ordered the kit and when it showed up, I cancelled my pre-order of just the body. Eventually sold the lens to a friend.

That's the oldest trick in the book...companies always make the kits available first before the bodies show up.
If you pre-order Canon cinema cameras from B&H, they might not cancel the order (unless you can talk your way out of it) and you'll be stuck with them.
The body or the 'B' will definitely show up at smaller authorized shops around the country before B&H starts pumping them out in full.

Yeah, I don't need or want that lens and my life has been too full of Craigslist and other ads for selling stuff lately so I guess I will just have to patiently wait.

If you have good credit, I can't see why increasing your purchase by $800.00 would be that different but of course, you'll have to ask them as they are the ones financing you.

It's more about the technicalities of the paper work. The $800 should be no problem at all, but they will let you know if it's possible to update based on their system.
If you purchase something from B&H with PayPal Credit, for example, you can't add an item to that order after it's been placed (or at least you couldn't when I last checked). The entire order needs to be canceled and redone if you wanted that extra item to be a part of the entire order with that payment method.
But with a credit card, you can add items to your order and everything will update and adjust accordingly.
So it's just one of those things. Really depends on the system in place and the overall flexibility.
