My 16mm hasn’t shipped from Adorama. Don’t think they were shipping until tomorrow? Lucky!! Haha

Some Shops have the RF 100-400 on stock here in Austria, but I haven't seen the RF 16 so far.

Many other RF lenses (24-70/2.8L, 100-500) are showing up on B&H and Amazon as 'more on the way' and 'in stock soon'.

Would a 13mm extension tube work with the 26mm lens? What is the issue to look out for?

FrenchFry · Oct 14, 2021

Looks like a lot of people on Europe have gotten lucky! Anyone get their preorders in the US yet? From where?

There are quite a lot of options for extension tubes for RF mount.
