Kenko KNT-20 out of stock!!!

rkid · 3rd of October 2003 (Fri)

I have tried a few retailers online in the last few days and all of them report that this lens is out of stock and back ordered. Has anyone found a shop online that has it in stock? Appreciate any repsonses.

Have you tried www.lensmateonlinecom

Yes, their site also reports out of stock.

Every place I've checked has been out-of-stock for a while now.

Sounds like there were some "production problems" with Kenko, though some places expect to get them again within a couple weeks (though I've been hearing that from some for some time now).

Can't even find them on Ebay, etc. Hopefully they'll come along again soon....

They should come back again ...

Kenko is a division of Tokina, so there's some major company behind it.

Regards,
Andy

They're now finally in at www.2filter.com if anyone's still looking.

I'd be assuming other places will start getting them in as well, but 2filter is actually shipping them for the moment....

Just order mine from www.2filter.com. Thanks for the info.

Just FYI, I got the following email from Lensmateonline.com

Hi,

After much waiting and different stories from our Kenko
distributor....................we did get a small shipment of lenses last week 10/14 but only enough to fill our backorders and the first few people on our long, interested parties list. The US distributors have said that they do not anticipate receiving anymore of the Kenko KNT-20 and believe it is discontinued.

Check on http://www.google.com to find other online vendors who also received a small shipment last week and may have limited stock. We are in the process of contacting the manufacture in Japan and will post any updates on our order page.
