Picked up the camera this morning (battery charging) but disappointed to find that spare batteries or vertical grips do not appear to have been shipped yet. Anybody had any luck with these accessories in Australia?
 
I live in France, and for me it's seems to be just the contrary : the vertial grip is on the way, but not the XT2. I would prefer the reverse

You two should meet. In Japan maybe? ;-)
 
No solace to you both, but I have had delivered this morning: X-T2, Vertical Grip, two spare batteries and the MHG-XT2 Metal Hand Grip. Sorry, UK Fuji are very good!

It's good for you

I hope, you will enjoy it.
 
Hi K10D - sorry I cannot help, but I have a question. Where about in Australia are you? I have ordered mine through Camera Electronic in Perth, but have heard nothing from them yet about anything. I am very jealous that you have yours already!

Oooops! I just read my emails and it has arrived - yaaaaay!!

I have the same issue from camera pro. Cameras shipped, no batteries or grips.. I guess we'll just have to wait. Disappointed though. 😒
 
Wow - sounds great. Yes, I have the T1, which I plan on keeping, so will be great to compare the two. Do you still have your T1 K10D?

I've kept the X-T1 as a backup, it's been a great camera. Fuji have listened to the criticisms and addressed them, I feel that the X-T2 is going to be a genuine classic.
 
I got an email saying an X-T2 I preordered can be picked up (Park Cameras, London branch). It's about 15 mins from where I am. I'm going to wait a while to get it (if I even do). Enjoy yours.
 
I'm in Bathurst NSW and in the same boat. I ordered from DigiDirect but the young man on the other end told me that they have no information on the batteries, although it seems that they have the grip in stock. I'm new to FujiFilm, and, although I love the camera, I'm pretty disappointed that there are no spare batteries. I've been shooting with it for a couple of days now, and it seems to me that the battery life is even worse than I expected, especially when filming in 4K. It would be nice to have some spare batteries!

Luckily I have some batteries from the X-T1 which are working ok. It's a real pain though, not sure why there is a problem in Australia.
