Love the idea of the NX1 but the lenses...

Hi guys,

I am in the market for a new camera. I am currently shooting with the Nikon D90. After 6 years I think it is time for something that is faster, has better DR and high ISO.

I was looking so far at the D7200, the D750, the Alpha A7ll and the A6000. And then I saw a review of the NX1 and I must say, that this camera has everything that I am looking for! Its fast, maybe the best crop sensor on the market, touch display that can be moved, 4k and a high FPS.

I would buy that camera in a heart beat, if.... there was not just that problem with the lenses... As far as I can tell the list is very, very small (and expensive).

Before I put the NX1 (sadly) aside, I would check with the community to see if I had missed something.

I am shooting 75% percent landscape, 10% Wildlife, 10% Super macro (flies, spiders) and 5% portrait.

What lenses would you recommend me here?

Landscape:

* Samsung - 16-50mm f/2-2.8 S ED OIS Lens

> That lens with the NX1 together is almost as expensive as the D750 with the 24-120... Are there any other options?

Macro:

* I would use a lens with extension tubes here

Wildlife:

* Samsung - 50-150mm f/2.8 S ED OIS Lens
--> That lens is way too short. Anything longer here? I am interested in the Tamron 150-600. Anything like that available for the NX1?
Thank you for your help.
Best,
Seb.
