Guest VVJ Posted July 10, 2015 Share #141 Posted July 10, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I called Leica Store Miami today. Even though I pre-ordered on 6/10 they estimate delivery is still 1-2 months away... Very frustrating... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Hi Guest VVJ, Take a look here Availability?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
sls Posted July 11, 2015 Share #142 Posted July 11, 2015 Popped into Leica Bruton Place this morning and they seemed to have plenty of Q accessories. Picked up a half case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silency Posted July 12, 2015 Share #143 Posted July 12, 2015 Just picked up mine from Leica store Los Angeles. Pre ordered 6/14. Salesman said there were now over 70 people in the queue at that store. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barjohn Posted July 12, 2015 Share #144 Posted July 12, 2015 Hopefully next week will see more inventory. A little concerned that Leica may not be able to maintain quality assurance when they have so many orders. Lloyd Chambers just blasted the Q because AF failed on him on his first field trial with the camera in the mountains. Nothing he tried would re-enable AF. Hope this was a fluke and not a sign of things to come. Several stores I have spoken with do not have long lists but others do. Generally the larger better known stores do and the smaller less known do not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archiver Posted July 13, 2015 Share #145 Posted July 13, 2015 Digi Direct in Melbourne just sold out and are expecting another delivery at the end of July. Michaels on Elizabeth Street is in the same boat. Held the demo Q at Michaels - wow. Just wow. It fits and balances in the hand so nicely, and the lens isnt anywhere near as big as the pictures make it look. The thumb groove at the back absolutely works. Too bad it had no battery at the time!

dkaye Posted July 13, 2015 Share #146 Posted July 13, 2015 I ordered a Q from the San Francisco Leica store ten days ago on July 3. They told me "two to three weeks." But it came into the store after only one week, on July 10. I canceled my pre-order from B&H, which I've had for many weeks now. Sounds like the S.F. store gets a few bodies in each week for now.

prk60091 Posted July 13, 2015 Share #147 Posted July 13, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I called Leica Store Miami today. Even though I pre-ordered on 6/10 they estimate delivery is still 1-2 months away... Very frustrating... i also pre-ordered from LSM (as well as my local dealer)- I know that is not good but I was trying to save 10% in tax ($500 USD is alot to give to the city).... fortunately my local dealer came through .... i never got a straight story from LSM as to when i mine would ship...... on the other hand my local dealer was upfront and communicative.... I do not understand why LSM is so obtuse about deliveries..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerkrel Posted July 13, 2015 Share #148 Posted July 13, 2015 I went for mine today, I ordered in June 16 in Barcelona Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0c0m0 Posted July 13, 2015 Share #149 Posted July 13, 2015 I got mine from Leica Store Bellevue about 10 days ago... Just came back from Leica Store Bellevue (being there a couple of hours ago, checking for accessories). Noticed a Q sitting in the store. I was told by local Leica Rep that that is the only one unit they have. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VVJ Posted July 13, 2015 Share #150 Posted July 13, 2015 i also pre-ordered from LSM (as well as my local dealer)- I know that is not good but I was trying to save 10% in tax ($500 USD is alot to give to the city).... fortunately my local dealer came through .... i never got a straight story from LSM as to when i mine would ship...... on the other hand my local dealer was upfront and communicative.... I do not understand why LSM is so obtuse about deliveries..... I don't get it either... I shortly will be out of the country for 5 weeks and I really wanted this camera... Had I ordered from B&H or from any other Leica Store on 6/10 I also would have had the camera... And yes, if in business you can't deliver it probably wouldn't hurt to change your demeanor a little bit and be more humble and upfront and communicative... Unless they unexpectedly come through I will most likely end up canceling my order... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYBORA Posted July 14, 2015 Share #151 Posted July 14, 2015 Any update for availability in Germany ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrusty Posted July 16, 2015 Share #152 Posted July 16, 2015 I placed my order for the Q with a major US Leica Store some weeks ago. I was advised to wait several weks to months. However I am a like a little Kid...I keep checking my Email, my iPhone and looking at the front door for a package.The anticipation for this camera is killing me! I wish Leica would hurry up!!

Harley Posted July 16, 2015 Share #153 Posted July 16, 2015 ...neither Q nor MM246 are showing up at stores in Germany! Wetzlar is heavily preparing the new "Super-System" to be presented in NJ on october 21. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucerne Posted July 16, 2015 Share #154 Posted July 16, 2015 Ordered mine beginning July and its on its way to me today. UK dealer with short list but probably no free stock. Harrison cameras. Nice people to do business with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucerne Posted July 16, 2015 Share #156 Posted July 16, 2015 Then you'll need a sig change you lucky *** :-) I'm red/green colour blind. Your comment (green on grey) was very faint, but thanks! Your Q can't be far behind! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
piran Posted July 16, 2015 Share #157 Posted July 16, 2015 I'm red/green colour blind. Your comment (green on grey) was very faint, but thanks! Your Q can't be far behind! My father-in-law is too. It's pretty faint even with good colour vision. My Q is 'WAY' behind, Red Dot yesterday told me I was back in 13th wait position (even with 10% deposit). So, it's pretty likely to be August at least or September ...this year (presumably). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bernie.lcf Posted July 17, 2015 Share #159 Posted July 17, 2015 Well, the new M is only rumored but we are certainly going to see the new FZ300 equivalent VLux pretty soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricky1981 Posted July 17, 2015 Share #160 Posted July 17, 2015 Apparently the first shipment to New Zealand is 2 (Two) Leica Q's, sadly I didn't get either of them, this might be a long wait! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
