Your unit has shipped from Denmark today. That means in your hands end of this week or early next week. You'll hear from our accounting department today!

New England Landscape - Fall Color (Oct 5-8)
There is no question this has been frustrating for all involved (except those who have received theirs - they've forgotten all about it!).
No real single issue that you can put a finger on, as has been discussed, it's a combination of factors - new cutting edge sensor technology (low yields), component shortages, very high demand, summer vacations (let's not forget that), which were not considered to be a factor initially, but the extent of the backorder was not anticipated either, so summer vacation has played more of a role than expected as a result.
While we had initially received steady shipments, we had a gap of weeks and weeks with no IQ180's delivered (though we did receive IQ160's during that period). Compounding this is that Phase has at times not shipped units in the exact order of placement - though the variance has only been off by 1-2 spots in the order, so normally this might mean, not this week's shipment, but next week's. Except in this case - the next week's shipment turned out to be next month's shipment. Quite frustrating.
I will say though, that shipments have picked up, and it seems to be ironing itself out. And hopefully this will continue and the additional wait will be shorter than we fear.
There's nothing particularly unique about this situation, but that doesn't make it any less stressful. Most of the products we sell just have a knack for not sitting on a shelf waiting for a buyer, nor are they produced on an assembly line.

Any input anyone ?What do you think about isos ?
I found iso 200 disappointing as iso 1600 in sensor + mode compared to the P40/60.
Iso noise is supposed to be improved on the IQ180 but it seams to be the contrary, is it just me or Phase marketing has been a bit 'optimistic' on that point ? ...
Good news for you that the Hasselblad V mount IQ backs are shipping. Have any dealers received shipping information on IQ backs for H series cameras?Just wanted to mention that Jeff Lin at Digital Transitions said today that my back should arrive from Denmark early next week.
