I ordered from B&H on 3/17 immediately when orders opened. Still sitting at 'Processing.' But I called them up a couple of days ago and changed mine to in-store pick-up so hopefully that doesn't delay anything.

Last Saturday I visited a village 20km South-West of my home.There is a palace there - the former residence of one of the most famous Prussian marshals and a prince from the times of napoleonic wars.I mean Gebhard Leberecht Fürst Blücher von Wahlstatt,or simply Marshal von Blücher.
Thanks, Peire! Lens test and history lesson in one post.

Sometimes they ship a day earlier than the day for in-store pick-up because they know the recipients for shipments can't get them until the next day at the earliest.

Thanks for the reply.
I got the same email. Like you, I didn’t order right away. I placed my order early April.
Still no change on my B&H order placed 4/25. Still sitting at "Backordered" (same status since day 1 of pre-order).
I reaaaally hope they have enough stock for me. I've been itching to play with my A7C more since I traded in my Canon kit (5D IV, 24-70L II, Sigma 50/1.4). All I have right now is the Samyang 35/2.8

texted the store I pre-ordered from this morning, and was told that their first batch of lenses is delayed by a day or two, but they will have one for me in that first shipment. hoping I have it in hand early next week.

Hopefully, the wait isn’t too long.Adorama told me it will fulfill next week for me.
Thats not bad at all. I've been worried ever since the Sony Japan delay announcement, but I guess it isnt so bad here.

I've had luck with Milford Photo (CT) before when I was able to get an R5 at launch without a pre-order. I know nothing about their 50mm GM allocation but it's at least listed on their site. You might want to call and ask.

Tried calling them - they are sold out. Thank you for the info though!
