One bad and one boring good news:

The bad: DC.watch (google translation here) that Sigma still doesn’t know when they will start to ship the 18-35mm f/1.8 A-mount version. Really upsetting to know you can already preorder the lens (like here at Amazon) but they won’t tell you when it will ship :(

The boring good news: There is on Hasselblad Lunar in Stock at [shoplink 21565 ebay]Samys (via eBay)[/shoplink]. And it comes with a free 8GB SD card! Huhhh!
