I'm a currently a user of a Samsung NX300 and have some good Samsung glass ( 16,30,45,85 ) the 85mm being my favorite! and I'm very content with it, in the lens department It's hard to see any difference, I used to be a Fuji user ( XE-1 ) with a 35mm 1.4 and the kit lens 18-55mm 2.8 lens were slow to focus in low light but with excellent results once you get it in focus, jpgs are awesome on fuji up to isoISO 3200 but raw files on Samsung are also very good up to 3200 ISO
Although jpeg seem to be awesome on the Fuji, do you think the same results could be achieved with careful RAW processing on the NX300 ? Appart from looking clean (and rather soft at high ISO), Fuji pictures are very vivid and appealing, as were their slide films. But with digital processing, isn't it possible to get about the same results with any image, by gently adjusting sliders in a PP software ?
If I read what you have just written, a NX300 is as capable as a X-E1, it just requires a bit more work. But the quality can be matched, for a lower price.
I have the same Samsung gears as you (haven't like the 20mm, so I sold it) and I was about to switch to a discounted X-E1. But testimonies coming from people who know both Fuji and Samsung cameras have brought some doubts ...
, responsiveness on the Samsung is better and the wifi feature was the winner specially now that you can tap and focus using an iPhone or any tablet, the X-E2 seems to be fast but almost equal in speed to the Samsung NX300 ( a friend has it ) I really considering the Fuji X-T1 instead with the 23mm 1.4 and the 56mm 1.2 ( once is out ), whats seems to be amazing and I hope Samsung can match on Fuji remote app is the interface and the well designed control over the remote app ( not only you can focus, you can capture on any mode and filters available, not sure if capturing in RAW is possible but I won't doubt it ) At this point I won't get ready off my Samsung camera and glass because of it's amazing quality and performance after all the NX300/16mm 2.4 is way smaller than the fuji X-T1/23mm 1.4 combo and can easily fit on a coat pocket ... No way you can do that with the Fuji combo!
