Long awaited reviews just not showing up...

Phil's reviews are among the best around and are well worth waiting for. I am also satisfied that his reasons for any real or imagined delays are valid. Quality takes time, have patience.
 
All that has changed and deliberately or not manufacturers now
choose not to give (production) cameras to reviewers much before
they actually go on sale.
I would guess this is so the more eager punters go in and buy them without any chance of being deterred by the fact that 'new' cameras, like 'old' cameras, aren't perfect.

Bad reviews hurt sales; new stuff sells; eagerness can be dampened by familiarity.
