About the same for me.got mine in early december 2016, ordered in June.
It may be inaccurate, but I was told by a dealer in NYC that the H6D100 is available quickly now in the US.
Totally agree. I am scheduled to receive my 100c tomorrow after a five month wait! I don't have any facts, but a very strong sense that they are finally catching up. I hope (and believe) that firmware updates are around the corner.This is likely true. They probably have just been ramping up production same story with the X1d.
I think Hasselblad has caught up. I received my 100c today. My order was one of the 100c upgrades from the H6D50c. upgrade program The upgrades were the last orders to be filled from backlog. We already had the 50c version in hand, so Hasselblad felt (for the most part rightfully so) that we could wait a bit longer. So at this point, I think a brand new order would have a fairly fast turnaround. Some of the big boys, may even stock one soon.Totally agree.

They are indeed catching up and so are Sony, Sony have been slow all of last year especially on the 100s but are coming right now.I think Hasselblad has caught up. I received my 100c today.

Interesting. You're saying Sony was slow on deliveries last year. What then, would be your explanation as to how Phase One was able to deliver IQ3 100mp backs throughout all of last year (deliveries began in January), with the exception of about a month after the earthquake at the factory? The issue definitely wasn't low demand by end users; it's been the best selling back since I started doing this in 2008.They are indeed catching up and so are Sony, Sony have been slow all of last year especially on the 100s but are coming right now.

Doug this is the last time I'm going to engage with you, I'm sick of your tiresome digs at me and Hasselblad.Interesting. You're saying Sony was slow on deliveries last year.

You think it's easy over at Digital Transitions reading these endless posts about "Where is the X1D" and the "X1D v. the Fuji GFX"? To add insult to injury, Fotocare in NYC now sells Phase One systems as well as Hasselblad and Fuji. Doug is very, very good, but he is not a magician.I thought the fact that B&H had the camera in stock was a pretty good answer to this thread, but I guess I was wrong.
It's not really a pissing contest. Doug and I are very different. Doug works for DT and has excellent technical skills and is a passionate Phase supporter. Unfortunately he has a bug up his *** about Hasselblad which is why he posts on a Canon 5D forum saying "the X1D isn't medium format" despite Phase selling the same chip. I have friends at Phase One and think they make great products, I certainly don't feel the need to go out and troll Phase threads. Maybe Phase have an X1D competitor up their sleeves, let's hopes so, I really want MF to thrive.Please don't stop. These pssing contests are what make the internet great.

That's fair. Though P1 2016 financials should be released in a few months, so you don't need to take my word. After all I mainly have a view of US shipments so probably should have said "at least in the USA".I fail to see how this kind of exercise will be productive in any way.
Please take into account that you can doubt Nick and try to prove him wrong, but the point is:
You are also related to a vendor, we could do the same about your affirmation that "it's been the best-selling back " (I trully believe you).
On the contrary I find it all quite exciting. I've worked in medium format for nearly a decade now and it's never been a more exciting market segment. This is the segment that for years the most common question was "is this the end of medium format?" (made every single time a new small-format camera was released). Over the past few years many of the features were added that medium format users begged for for years (live view, good high ISO, faster capture rates, good screens, etc).You think it's easy over at Digital Transitions reading these endless posts about "Where is the X1D" and the "X1D v. the Fuji GFX"?
