There would have to be two separate lists because Canon packages these as two separate items: One is a box with the camera only. The other is a box with both the camera and the lens in it. Generally speaking they are not going to send you the camera in one box and then go to their lens inventory and pull out a different box with the lens only.

So, which list gets shipped first depends on what the retailer ordered/received. If they got a lot of kit boxes and very few camera-only boxes, then the kit people will get their merchandise first. Or, visa versa.

For a look at the box that contains both the camera and the lens in one kit see:

Awesome that they are in the same box -- that's what I was hoping to hear.  Based on what I'm hearing, perhaps the "R5 + Kit" waiting list is not that long after all.  Thanks.
