I preordered from Adorama, maybe 4-5 hours after pre-orders started. I ordered the R5 along with 2 CFExpress cards. The R5 has been marked as Backordered, of course, and the cards have been marked Awaiting Items.

Just now I checked my bank, and I've been charged for the amount of the 2 cards, but not the R5. The status at Adorama hasn't changed (Backordered R5, and Awaiting Items for the cards). But that's interesting, anyway... either they're going to randomly send the cards right now and keep waiting for the camera, or... *fingers crossed*

I hope your camera shipped with the cards.  I bought from Adorama just the R5 body and nothing else. My purchase was  July 9 judy at 4 hours after the start (9AM PDT almost to the minute) so we are about at the same place in line I suppose which may mean my camera is also about the ship if yours was.  I have not checked my account.  I will wait for a confirmation email from Adorama some time tomorrow morning.
