Originally posted by DonovanJM It makes me question the management of the company.
Hmmm....well, you're in a large club, especially in the west. maybe not so much in Japan.

It's not the first time this small, conservative company has woefully underestimated demand. It happened with the 645Z and maybe the 645 25mm before that; It happened with the K1; it just happened again with the new f1.4 50mm. Looking at it from their point of view, I think they see the downsides of having too much stock as a worse negative than having ample supply, although that is pure speculation on my part. So, anyway, you missed the history here....
Quote: I fully expected to have some sort of wait due to me waiting until the end. Totally understandable and my fault.
I think the positive in this is that they are honoring last minute send-ins.
Quote: A three month wait to just get the parts seems unreasonable to me. That's also assuming that they get the parts at the end of December. Apparently it's been pushed back twice already with no gua8ot won't happen again.
Yeah, seems odd, but then we're also talking worldwide, and who knows what the chip supplier's scene is....
