Love the NX300 but I need a better lens than the 50-200 zoom (better = quality and focal length). To rephrase, I want a longer reach with some significant glass. I realize that the lens could be somewhat big and potentially unbalanced but to get a decent bird or wildlife shot I need a 300mm lens minimum (would prefer a 400). Not asking for f2.8 but f4 might be nice. With one decent telephoto or long zoom (no superzoom please) I would be entirely happy with this system. Perhaps I ask too much but I think not.

Birds shots maybe something too "professional". It is popular among photographers, but not that popular among other consumers. And that lens would be heavy and expensive for a mirrorless system. So maybe samsung won't release this kind of lens recently:-(. Perhaps some 3rd manufactors will provide long facal length lens? But of course, manual focus- -!
