Cameras & Camcorders

[AtomBomb]

I have been saving money for a while now, and I now have enough money to buy my Sony NEX-5NK/S. The only issue is that it is not available in any stores within 100 miles of my house here in the NW suburbs of Chicago or my old house in Salt Lake City, so I'm guessing that it's not available in any stores and it is also unavailable for shipping to home or for store pick up. I was wondering if this is related to the problem that this camera has been having while recording video if you are unaware of this "clicking sound" just google it and you'll see what I'm talking about. Since Sony has announced that they have a solution to fixing this problem, I'm wondering if Best Buy has pulled the camera from the shelves until Sony ships out cameras that do not have this problem. I was wondering if my assumptions are correct or if anyone has any additional information on this topic. Thanks in advance, Adam

It's a combination of issues....

• you are talking about the orientation sensor...

• the camera is popular
• the biggest reason is the Thai floods.  There's a huge shortage of popular Nikon products too.
