So when is this going to ship?

Looks like in two days, on the 12th.

If only it had a little bit faster aperture...

I don't think I'll be able to shoot hand-held at night as I do with the Samyang 7.5mm f3.5, and that makes me stick with the 7.5

[Serhan]

Mine shipped today from B&H also. It should be here tomorrow. Unique photo had in stock around noon time and was selling at Amazon too. You can check if they still have in stock..

Amazon is claiming mine will be delivered on the 3rd along with my 24-70mm for the a7r. Guess we shall see if one or both show up on my doorstep haha.

Mine is being held by my sales guy at Adorama - also waiting for the 14-42EZ lens - so hopefully will pick them both up one day next week.
