WooHoo, I got an email from Canon... - EOS R5 Mark II shipping

[JFG]

Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd share with you all, that today I received confirmation from Canon and FedEx, that my EOS R5 MARK II will be delivered tomorrow, August 21, 2024 by the end of day.  Estimated Delivery:  10:20am to 2:20pm, Signature required..  That's what I call efficiency! !  Released date August 20th, and Delivery date August 21st  ! 

Canon also apologized for the delay on fulfilling my order for the "Cooling Fan CF-R20EP" at this time, as they didn't anticipate the high demand, adding, "Your order remains a priority for us, and we apologize for the delay. We remain committed to fulfilling all items as soon as possible."  The important thing is that the R5 Mark II and extra LP-E6P batteries are being delivered tomorrow.  The cooling fan, I can wait for.   😆

Rick,

I will do.  I'll give you my preliminary thoughts once received!  I probably won't be able to sleep tonight!  lol 😀 

I just got back from Singapore and I'm waiting for my luggage to be delivered tonight (tomorrow morning) between 12:00am to 1:00am.   😪   I'm just thankful that they found it !🙏

Good for you, Joe!   I hope it is everything you expect.  Looking forward to your impressions and some sample images!

Thanks Trevor, the feeling is mutual!  I ordered new Lexar SD and CFexpress cards.  I'll be getting the SD card tomorrow and won't be receving the CF card until Sept 3rd.   However, I can use the R52 with only the SD card.  So I plan to set it up Friday or Saturday and take it for a test drive.  I'll set it up like my R62 just to compare than tweek it as I go.  Any advise from you is always welcomed 😉

Happy snapping! 😀📷
