Fujifilm Australia have sent us a statement regarding the expected delivery delays on the new X100.
"You may have read media updates recently relating to the re-commencement of X100 production following the earthquake in Japan.
We have received overnight, a further update from Fujifilm Tokyo.
Faced with extreme challenges, very significant resources have been utilised so that as we speak, X100 is currently back in production.
Fujifilm Tokyo anticipates commencement of exports by mid April, disrupting the original schedule by about one month.
What does this mean for Australian customers?
Fujifilm Australia anticipates seeing our next X100 shipment arriving in Australia towards the end of April, although at this stage we don't know what quantity we will receive. Note that we currently have enough backorders and forward orders to take up all April-May stock arrivals, so at this stage any new customer orders will probably not be able to be filled until June. As more information becomes available over the next couple of weeks we will be in a better position to advise on an ETA.
We once again thank you and your customers for your understanding and patience during what are clearly challenging times." We have a shop camera here in stock so if your interested in checking one out head instore for a hands on demo. We are currently taking orders for the X100 and the list seems to be growing day by day. If you are hoping to get a camera with the first shipment then get your name on our order list as allocations are running out quickly.
