Sony apologizes (again) for getting too many α99 II orders

sony-a99-ii-camera
If you believe in fairy tales, here is one: Sony made an official announcement that they received so many pre-orders for the new a99 II camera at $3,198 that they cannot keep up with the production and potential delays are expected. If you believe those statements, the photo industry should be doing pretty good and it is not. If photo gear manufacturers want to be taken seriously, they should stop using high demand as an excuse for their internal production problems (I am talking about Nikon, OlympusFujiSony and probably a few other manufacturers).
