Around 4 months delay on the roadmap of Sony-Panasonic-Olympus-Nikon (Fuji was lucky)

We keep receiving info via different sources that the Kumamoto Sony sensor shutdown will have effects til late 2016. All major companies had to delay their camera release roadmap by at least four months.

And a lucky note on Fuji: They ordered a big lot of the X-T2 sensors made by Sony long before the Kumamoto earthquake. And lucky enough Sony produced most of those sensors before the shutdown in April. Fuji could ship the new X-T2 already now but they prefered to start shipping the cameras in September to reduce the production gab between this first batch of cameras and the second batch that is affected by the Sony four month production delay.
