Canon 5D Mark II starting to ship to the early birds
Yes, 5D Mark II, the wait for some lucky Canonites is over as some of the early pre-order are starting to ship! There are reports of shipments from Ritz/Wolf online and some other retailers.
However, for new buyers and a lot of other pre-orderers the wait continues at the big online stores. None of the retailers we track are shipping the camera, but they are happy to take pre-orders.
To celebrate the Mark II, Calumet Photo interviews Chuck Westfall, look for the red "PLAY Audio" button under the "Product Features" segment of the Calumet page. The audio playback requires Flash. This is an audio interview, not a video interview. This is a technical interview discussing features and applicability. A must-listen-to interview! And no, the interviewer is not Wolf Blitzer! You are not in the Calumet Situation Room!
And now some first impressions from a fashion photographer in Singapore, what did By the Wei think after using it?
Update: The battery and battery grip are shipping
The LP-E6 battery is shipping from three retailers at Amazon.com, the lowest is $88 shipped by Calumet and 17th Street.
The battery grip is shipping from Calumet Photo for $290. Simply search for "bg-e6" in the Calumet search box and you will find it right there.
