You're justified in thinking that with no EVF/OVF or tilt screen the NX200 isn't a camera that's going to provide serious usage, but that's for you , not for all photographers and not for most photographers. Many serious photographers will get along just fine with the NX200, and for those like you, that feel that it's too limited, there's always the NX20 or whatever NEX that satisfies. My preference would be for a tilt/swivel screen but unlike you, the lack of one is not a deal breaker, and I've had many cameras with either tilt/swivel or articulated screens. If I need that feature I still have a few that I can use that are fairly close in image quality to my NX100. But for a "pro" that's serious about his/her photography that really needs a tilt/swivel screen, they might share their opinion once or twice and then get whatever camera they need to get the job done, and if it's not an NX200, it's no big deal. They're married to their jobs and to their craft, not to a camera that will be replaced before too long anyway. And while a high resolution EVF would be nice (if priced reasonably), it's rarely necessary to get the job done. If I have to pay extra for one, I'd rather have it a permanent part of the camera, like in an NX10/11/20, so that I would lost that feature if I need to use a flash, or want to use Samsung's GPS device. Many serious photographers, BTW, have more than one camera, so a feature that one doesn't have is likely to be provided by one of their others. Are you putting all of your eggs in one basket?No EVF/OVF, no tilt screen to partially make up for it=camera marketed for compact users, not for serious usage.
Not to mention zero technical support.
You keep posting the same gripes over and over again and it's unlikely that you or those that disagree with you are going to change opinions since this back and forth has been going on for a long time now. How long is enough, days? Weeks? Until you have something more productive to write about? Or will these LCD/EVF/OVF gripes continue for months? Until next year? Until the NX200 is no longer in production? I get your point, got it a long time ago, and would be thrilled to see that you are able to discuss something else. Huh? Maybe? Please?
