I spoke to my friends at Fixation.
There is a large queue for the cameras and supplies are very short. They only got 15 in the first batch.
They are part of the WEX group now. WEX has a massive backlog of unfulfilled D500 cameras on their books.

Looks like my D500 will be on its way soon.  I had a conversation with Amazon about it and it is showing that it will be dispatched on Monday they just need to contact me on Monday to confirm which address to send it UK or Spain.
So I will find out more on Monday.

I been testing the Amazon process.
Seems like they do allocations from different pools.
If I order in UK then it is saying that they could fulfill today in UK but not until mid-June in Europe.
I want the camera delivered to me in Spain so this is a less than ideal situation.

They fly every day. :lol:  So yes that is a possible option but adds a lot of cost to the delivery.



Actually while I am convinced I could use a D500 now to replace my D300S I am even more interested in a D900 (D500 but FX) which I am told is coming end of this year.
Given the either/or situation I would rather have a D900 but in reality since I have a D600 and D800 then D500 is the better option for me at this point in time. 

A D750 is a very tempting option but I know that I will be disappointed that it is not a significantly better camera than my D600.
