Canon’s new 5D has started shipping in the US.
Australian shipping is a bit of a guess. Rumor is for the end of the week (28^th^ Nov). Mine is on pre-order from Cameras Direct. They stopped taking any more pre-orders. Hopefully, they are close with Canon and can ship this week.
China is a bit luckier, as it is already available in selected camera stores.
Bonus: Video editing tutorials for FCP and the 5D.
Adobe has also updated Camera Raw to support the 5D Mark II. Lightroom update to follow in December.
