Canon says it could take half a year for your EOS R3 order to ship

Looks like there might be a long wait if you have pre-ordered an R3 unfortunately.

Canon says it could take half a year for your EOS R3 order to ship

Canon has issued a notice to consumers announcing that due top ‘the impact of global parts supply,’ new orders of its EOS R3 mirrorless camera could take up to six months to land on your doorstep.

There again Panamoz have them in stock right now. I'm not interested but some might be, grey import but £420 less than UK advertised RPP and comes with a 3 year warranty which makes it a better deal too. I think anyone that is interested should make a move now or be prepared to wait. The rep for Canon at a local Canon shop show couldn't show me one as there weren't any available....how ridiculous is that!

I'd consider Panamoz if I wanted one but I'm very happy with the R5 and prefer the extra pixels for wildlife. That is pretty crazy that even the Canon reps can't demo them

Me too. Having just sold my 5D4 I need a back up at some stage, just not sure what but at the moment it's an R6.

I was interested in the R3 with some of the action shots that I like to take but ended up with the R5 and can't justify Panamoz since the currency conversion rate would cost me $1400 more than one here in the US.

I've been happy with my R5 so far and still have my 1DXii as a backup if needed.
