Crazy thoughts about the Galaxy NX
2

Looking at the Galaxy NX, I can't help thnking that the EVF does not make much sense except for being able to say things like "it has everything you can expect from a DLSR"...

In my opinion, there was a (crazy) possibility for making the EVF a great added value : instead of fixing the smartphone to the camera, why not make it removable ? (see http://www.freshnessmag.com/2012/10/11/samsung-nx-s1-galaxy-camera-system-concept-by-donnie-ray/ if you can visualize the idea)

Without the smartphone attached, it would be a camera with a typical NX UI but EVF-only. With the smartphone attached, it would become a full Galaxy Camera ! This way, the Galaxy NX would become a modular system with a smartphone line and a camera body line evoluting in parrallel. Even better, the modularity allows one to bring a "classic module" with no smatphone possibilities but consisting of a smaller screen with plenty of buttons ! Possibilities are inifinite (as long as you promise a sufficient retro-compatibility).

Just dreaming
