35-100mm X in Stock at Samys and Amazon. Super Gold Box deal on the Panasonic LX5
Samys (Click here) and Amazon (via Samy) are finally having a bunch of Panasonic 35-100mm X lenses in Stock! In Europe this lens is already shipping via Technikdirekt Germany. Also the E-PM2 is in Stock at Samys (Click here).
And as you know the Olympus XZ-1 is the most sold digital camera at Amazon (Click here). That may be the reason why Panasonic allowed a Gold Box deal on the LX5 which now sells for $249 at Amazon (Click here). Full list of todays Gold Box deal can be seen here.

Also the GH3 will ship from Samys on November 30th. Panasonic.com isn’t kidding when they put these dates on their web pages.

How about it Panasonic?

7 months ago |Given that Panasonic just forecast a $9.6 billion loss for the year and their stock price fell 19% yesterday, let’s hope they can sell as many X lenses and GH3 as they can make.

7 months ago |Absolutely not. All the “X lenses” are in stock all the time, and except the just released 35-100, are discounted (which is not surprising, how insanely overpriced they are to begin with).

7 months ago |Samys in L.A. is amazing. They have van delivery service for free. I ordered this lens this morning and it’s sitting on my desk. Can anyone else tell me what their lens looks like? Mine has the glossy, purple tint that the pre-production models had which I thought were changed to pure black for the official release.

7 months ago |“Finally”? It’s not like at this price it is going to be a hot seller. A small bunch of desperate people will buy it for full price, after that it will quickly go down a couple hundreds just like the 12-35.
