Well they made the NX1** series and the NX2** series is apparently on the way. They have committed to quite a few really competent lenses. I cannot see what the bother is. As long as they sell enough gear to make it worth while they don't need to win the sales championship. Sometimes it is best to hasten slowly. If you own Samsung NX of any description you are not any better off if everyone in the neighbourhood owns one as well.
I meant no offense, nor did I mean to imply that Samsung, as a camera company, was making any sort of mistake. I was mainly surprised that an executive would be so forthcoming about the corporate plans for a low volume run. My comment about "not bode well" was intended to indicate that product would be scarce.
I'm not so sure about this Tom; if the camera does not sell in big numbers you will get no third party interest. No extra lenses, no little gadgets, no software wired control and if you sell prints it makes people question your choice.
Tom, Ian, you both make great points, but I see even more fundamental issues with Samsung's low NX production volume. They are a large company that tends to benefit from economies of scale. They won't make the margins they want if the volumes on the NX product are low. Eventually that will prompt them to start cost-reducing the NX product, and that could dampen interest, which in turn could dampen further production, etc.
