Loving my new NX lenses - thank you henrys!!

Thanks to this forum for giving me the heads up on the amazing samsung deals henrys was having....as a result i finally added a bunch of new glass to my nx10 / 18-55 kit which has been on my mind for a while. I added the 16, 30, 85, 50-200 & sef 20 flash for a grand total of $1600!!!! Crazy. So far i've only had a chance to try each lens out a few times and the 85 has already astounded me with its quality even wide open. The sef 20a is a really cool little flash which will hold me over until they come out with a full swiveling flash for doing bounce in vertical shooting. Sony has a pretty good design for that so hopefully samsung can copy that design.

Ive used pretty much every camera brand und the sun and originally i was not interested in a "samsung" camera. What changed my mind was noticing how my pentax k7 camera had a distinctive look to the images which i really liked....then when i upgraded to the k5 that look went away and the images required a lot more post processing to get what i wanted...so i went looking for a used k7 when i stumbled on a nx10 for practically a give away price.

I now have my eye on the nx20 but i feel it is a bit overpriced at the moment. When it comes down a bit and hopefully samsung can develop some firmware to increase the buffer depth i'll be buying one of those. Lastly i pray that samsung does develop the 80-400 lens as that would round out the kit perfectly. In my opinion the 80-400 would make the nx kit stand out vs its peers which is what samsung needs to keep doing ( started with the 85).

Signed,

A very happy samsung camera owner
