Canon EF 8-15mm f/4L Fisheye Lens Availability Update

July 29, 2011 By Eric Reagan

Last week, I passed along a reader’s tip that a limited number of Canon 8-15mm f/4L lenses would be making their way into the US this week.  It looks like that is now coming to pass since B&H is taking pre-orders for the 8-15mm Fisheye lens.

As you may be aware, when B&H opens items up for pre-order, it generally means that they will be shipping within a few days.  Based on the numbers I was given by the tipster, I wouldn’t expect these to last long.
