Did you order from B&H? I need to get my hands on one asap. I'm assuming the functionality is solid.

Plus WHEW, look at that Otus. Felt my heart flutter a bit.

i ordered it directly from metabones the day they announced. functionality is solid as advertised. The price is a bit steep but worth every cents in my opinion.

Good to know thanks!
I put my order with B&H as I gotta have this thing. I'm new to the GH4 and I decided only to buy one lens but I have my select Canon lenses that I've used for some time (I still work with the 5D3 as well).

Anyways, thanks for your feedback, I'm looking forward to getting the adapter (but boy do I wish it was cheaper.)

fedex just send me an invoice for custom fee. WTF? I bought directly from metabones many times before but never got billed for the custom fee.

That is kind of strange. I've never had that happen before.

I'm still waiting for mine from B&H. No update on wether it's going to ship soon or anything. Just says "On-Order".

Did Metabones mismark the customs form? Photographic equipment should be free to import.
