Re: Samsung - what I dislike
I agree with you there. It would be nice to have the option of buying the body with one or two choices from prime lenses. It would certainly tempt me to buy another one

So for me it is time to rant about the fact that I always seem to be unable to buy a Samsung body at a reasonable price. Having bought NX10, NX11, NX20, 2xNX30, NX3000 I`m sure not short of kit lenses as the body always would have cost me more than I paid for the kit. Sometimes the kit lens comes in handy as I donated the NX10 to a friend, the NX11 to my daughter and the NX3000 to my wife and the kit made a nice starter. But as I prefer my pancakes and the rest of my family nowadays, too I can now start to get the world`s biggest collection of Samsung kit lenses or just rant.
I wonder wheter Samsung does think that a kit including the 30mm pancake would not sell or whether the kit lenses are really cheaper to produce. I cannot immagine that the kit lenses are cheaper to produce - so why not update the 30mm with iFn button and offer them as kit? And what about recognizing the fact that the system is now old enough that some users have all the lenses and just want a new body? What about bringing an ample supply of bodies at decent prices?
