D1H shipping in US

[Reza Marvashti]

Got our D1H's today and shot an assignment this evening. In a dimly lit gymnasium with bleeding daylight from windows and tungston overheads. With the camera set to 1250 and 1600 ASA and a pre-set white, the camera rocked. It was really quick, the response time on the preview was great and the wider viewfinder were a huge plus.
So far so good! At 1600 the images were pretty darn nice looking compared to the D1.

Does anyone know if the D1H is in stock anywhere in the US? I've also read that they would be going for about $3,800 but haven't seen them advertised for less than $4,300. Is anyone getting them for cheaper?

Thanks,

Kevin R.

I just received a quote today from Susan Stickradt @ Photo Systems Inc. for $3999, 10 day availability.

We just unpacked eight D1-H's and related gear from Louis Feldman @ Samy's Camera in California. They gave our newspaper a great deal! Call him.

We're chompin' at the bit while our batteries go through boot camp (AKA "conditioning").

My D1H arrived Friday, Aug. 10. It's my first full-time ditcam, and so far has not left me wanting. I spent yesterday into last night conditioning my batteries so I could shoot a football media day this morning, and shooting it on cards saved me a pile of work over scanning film. Color, sharpness and workflow are all in line with what I had hoped.
