SiggiGun Posted April 8, 2013 Share #1 Posted April 8, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Any news about APO-Summicron 50 delivery? At least in Europe, It seems that there isn't actually no delivery observed after a first batch March. According to my information more then 70% are shipped (if any!) outside Europe.

Bill W Posted April 9, 2013 Share #2 Posted April 9, 2013 No reported shipments in the USA that I am aware of. A lot of folks waiting for one. I get an update from B&H every few weeks stating it is on backorder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jager Posted April 9, 2013 Share #5 Posted April 9, 2013 I got mine end of January 2013 in the US. Indeed, there was a very small shipment at the end of January, as Lou mentions. Small enough - just a handful - that even most mainstream Leica dealers did not receive a single copy. A second small shipment arrived in the US in late March. That's when I picked up mine. The good news is that they are least trickling in. The even better news is that the lens is worth every minute of wait... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
enboe Posted April 11, 2013 Share #6 Posted April 11, 2013 Sorry for the redundant post from the M thread page I saw one unsold in Orlando earlier this week. The dealer does not ship. Eric Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KanzaKruzer Posted April 11, 2013 Share #9 Posted April 11, 2013 I received my 50APO early March as reported in the following thread: http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m-lenses/277378-apo-summicron-delivery.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
algrove Posted April 11, 2013 Share #10 Posted April 11, 2013 Strange they would not ship. It would be sold today:confused: They are trying to help Disney World revenues by requiring a visit before you can purchase a Leica product. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leica5 Posted April 16, 2013 Share #12 Posted April 16, 2013 I believe customers who ordered one in mid May 2012 have received it by now. I got mine in USA by end of March. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest borge Posted April 16, 2013 Share #14 Posted April 16, 2013 A friend of mine picked one up some days ago at a local dealer here in Trondheim, Norway. He did not pre-order and it was on display. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbuckley Posted April 16, 2013 Share #15 Posted April 16, 2013 I'm with Lou (algrove) and Jeff (jager) -- ordered mine on May 10th from the Leica Store in DC, received mine in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay B Posted April 16, 2013 Share #16 Posted April 16, 2013 Ordered mine May 21 2012. First on the list at the dealer and as of yet, no deliveries to the Pacific Northwest... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
koala54 Posted April 16, 2013 Share #17 Posted April 16, 2013 Following the initial batch I am guessing that the next run should produce higher quantity for deliveries. The 1.4 50 asph just need to soldier on for the time being. Wonder if there are any diff between the initial batch and the subsequent. Initial batch owners may be holding on to probably a higher spec product? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John- I told another friend to order one and he also got his from "our" store about the same time as we got ours. So I know they received three APO 50.
