Thanks for that Mike.
Should that be the current one, or one of the previous incarnations?

Does anyone have one that they would like to sell?
Would also possibly be interested in a 2.0 X as well.

I look forward to a response.

We don't know what has caused the delays to the 'product parts'. A lot of things are being delayed due to Covid-19. It only needs a production facility to be closed for a while, or key people in a development team to get the bug, and every sheduled date goes out the window. And if there's a delay in getting parts, it makes sense to spend the time tweaking things (i.e. development) so the final thing is as good as can be. Speaking personally, I think it's remarkable how companies have been managing to keep things going through an incredibly difficult period.

Sony, Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm et al, don't seem to be having the same problems. To me it appears to be another cop out.
I want to buy one - it's most frustrating.
