I got an email from amazon today...

They said that because they couldn't get the item, they decided to go ahead and cancel my preorder!!!

WTF!!! my estimated delivery date was nov 14th FWIW.

Amazon is showing 4-7 weeks now. I happened to be in a local store over the weekend and overheard a comment attributed to a Nikon Rep saying 2 months before the lens will be delivered to dealers.

lets just say im on the phone with them and NOT happy at all.

because I ordered earlier and had an earlier estimated delivery date, they cancel my order because they dont have it yet.... but still keep preorders for people who ordered a few days later then my because there estimated delivery dates are later? that is complete BS

Can you guys with amazon preorders do me a favor and call amazon to ask if your order is still valid?

I didn't call them but my preorder still shows up on their website. They did send me a mail a few weeks back telling me they were going to cancel unless I extended my preorder which I did.

I just looked at amazon, I can't find the lens on their site tonight. It was there the other day.

It is still there but doesn't show up through a regular search now:

http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-35mm-AF-S-Digital-Cameras/dp/B0042X9LB0

Interestingly enough, you can now order one again. For the last few weeks you couldn't even order one.

I did that as well.... One of my points of argument about why they should not have just canceled my preorder.

New estimate by Amazon:

"Nikon 35mm f/1.4G AF-S FX SWM Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras"
Estimated arrival date: December 17 2010

At least they didn't drop my preorder.

^thx for the link. unfortunately - and i may have this wrong - any informative exif info was stripped from those pics =/

i.e., i'd like to know what camera and ISOs he was using. and some of them look like they've been altered/tweaked in post, despite the photographer mentioning minimal sharpening.

cheers

edit: anyone who gets their greasy mitts on the new 35G and is kind enough to post 100% crops with exif info would become the best friend of a few hundred FM members.

those engagement shots are very good - but nothing that we haven't seen before from any 50 1.4 prime. Brett I look forward to you and Ryan putting it through its paces when you receive yours.

Very good indeed, but it looks like he applied significant high pass / midtone contrast sharpening in post. Nice for the pics, but not so good for evaluating the lens qualities!

Looking forward!
