At least in the USA, Samsung has a brand problem. People associate it with things like washing machines and microwave ovens.

In the USA, Canon also beats Samsung in camera marketing and distribution. Canon brand cameras are available everywhere, and Canon does a decent amount of advertising.

(On the mirrorless side, my local camera store offers Sony, Olympus, Panasonic, Fuji, Nikon, Leica, but not Samsung.)

It takes more than technical merit to sell cameras.

This^^^^^^^^^^ For some reason, photographers seem to be some of the most image/fashion/brand concious people around. Don't know how the likes of Samsung will get around that. Look how long it's taking Sony, & they had a premium brand image/cache to begin with.

i dont' think it's that.  if i cant get local gear or used gear for a system, odds are i'm looking at my overall "sunk costs" into the eco system as being alot higher.
