The official "I got my AF100" thread

Klon, I ordered from B&H on December 7th, and I also am receiving mine on Wednesday.

Roger roger. I'm impressed with how quickly B&H is shipping these- I can only imagine how many orders have been placed through them.
 
Camera arrived today in Seattle from Abel Cine

didnt get in as much test shooting as would have liked today. planning on posting some video tomorrow night.

UPS delivered my AF100 from B&H today. It was painful tracking the package as it sat in Portland, Oregon since Dec 28th... That is only 156 miles from Seattle where I live.

I just got an email a couple minutes ago from Full Compass that my camera actually shipped yesterday/today (Monday the 3rd) and will arrive this Friday. Awesome!
 
waoh! this is crazy! 38,370 views so far for A 10 day old thread of people just saying "I'll get mine on this date" or "B&B sucks" or stupid comments like mine.

This is amazing!

Do you think that if I said "i just got mine , did some test, this camera is rubish!" I might get stoned to death! :)

Same here, due to arrive St. Louis on Wednesday. Thanks to Shawn and Cole at Full Compass for their thorough responsiveness to inquiries, and turning the camera around very quickly.
 
Same here

It says it cleared customs and in transit for delivery expected to arrive by the end of the day.

then i get a notice saying: Power of attorney documentation is missing and is required for clearance

wtf.... Called them up and they said it was on route... Im so lost, wtf ups.

Same here! Now I have to get off my butt and figure out which sd cards and lens adapters to get.

UPS is an F'n nightmare when importing anything into Canada! Nothing but a pain in the *ss - so much so that if I can't get shipping by another carrier I'll buy somewhere else…
I know this doesn't help you, but maybe someone else can avoid the shipping h*ll that is UPS International. Even USPS / Canada Post is faster easier when shipping us->canada.
 
YES!.. I just got a phone call from 3D Broadcast in the UK!.. I will be receiving my two AG-AF101 this Thursday (day after tomorrow)!!...:2vrolijk_08:AT LAST!!..
I'll be sure to post my thoughts and pics here as soon as possible.

This may also provide other people some clues on when to expect cameras bought in the UK.:)

Yeah, i generally try to avoid UPS like the plague. I wonder if there is a way to request another shipping method if one were to call in to BH... Would be nice, and much less expensive too... But might not be a possibility.

Our shipping options to Canada for one AG-AF100 include Purolator ground, UPS Worldwide Expedited, UPS Worldwide Saver, FedEx Economy, FedEx Priority, and International Express Mail (from least to most costly). More information is available on our site.

Creative Video are saying they'll have stock again on Jan 27th, didn't check 3D Broadcast status so thanks I'll go have a look.

Not sure whether to hold off and see how these things all pan(-nie) out or just dive in and get one :)

Purolator Ground from B&H has always worked for me. They pre-clear Canada customs when it ships, not when it reaches the border… usually arrives second day here in Toronto. You can even pre-pay any duties (if needed) when you order.
