Or maybe only on 5th Jan?

NX300 is already so heavily discounted (EUR 250), that the new NX400 announcement must be on the corner. I bet it will happen on 2nd Jan.

The current situation is a bit funny: For EUR200 you can get an NXmini. Or you can get an APSC NX3000 for 250. Yet the better NX300 also costs only 250. So who is the target customer for NX3000 now?

Hopefully the NX300 will run out fast and the pricewalk will be logical again.

No rumors, not even a word on "specialized" sites...

Looks like we'll have to wait at least for February (CP+) for announcements.

Samsung has sent out formal invitations to its CES 2015 keynote and press conference. The press conference will be "a journey to discover Samsung's latest innovations that will create new possibilities and shape the future," and the place we'll likely see most if not all of Samsung's announcements. It goes down at 2 pm PT on Monday, January 5. The keynote begins at 6:30 pm PT on January 5; President & CEO BK Yoon will discuss the Internet of Things and "how it will transform our lives."

Neither keynote nor press conference has begun yet.

I know but given the total lack of rumors, I think that we are still weeks of any official announcement and probably months of any new release in the NX world.

Lenses for the NX1 should cone first IMO (wide angle sealed S zoom to complete the kit plus 24f1.4).

Then, around May or June, release the NX500 and 16-80f4.

Looks like Samsung is a logical company after all...

Looking forward to seeing some new lenses announced around CP+.

2015 will be the year of the NX1 system. Wide angle large aperture zoom, large aperture prime & telephoto. My guess is that more " amateur" oriented products will have to wait until S2 2015.

First, maybe the NX400 in February?

"Then we will conquer Berlin."
