is the nx1000 getting a successor this year?

They are having a go with NX but it is not really in their DNA to distribute extras to bolt on to something they have already sold.

Which is bizarre in the camera world as most of the mony is made on rip-off accessories (ask Olympus, the King of ripoff addons) . I guess the camera market in general isn`t in Samsung's DNA either (you can tell by the constant lack of setup options for things like command dials) , shame because the NX and EX series are not only serious contenders but leading the field in some respects .

It`s a real shame that they didn`t buy Pentax, the name alone would put NX on the map - though after the hit & miss DSLRs, the white elephant K01 and the laughable Q it may have been too late - it`s rather fitting that Pentax joined with an even more hit and miss company than they themselves - Ricoh ! . Whatever, IMO the Samsung name isn`t doing NX any favours.

I was talking to a guy in a camera shop and he said they had sent all their K01's back, I do not think they had sold a single one.

Some Olympus stuff is OK unlike their notorious lens hoods. The wide converter for the 14-42 lens is a super bit of kit and not too expensive. Distributing these extras is probably very expensive. I am tempted to get an EX2F as it is such a good price on Amazon and I must admit any lack of accessories is not really a show stopper and the quirky menus I can live with. It is just a Samsung thing that when so many things grey out you just reset in the menu. I suppose you lose custom settings and buttons but I usually forget what I have set up anyhow and never can make my mind up which are my favourite settings so back to base is not always a bad thing.
