Samsung NX 300/500 Automatic Gain Control - EM10 Mic - please help me!!!

Hi,

I know this is a lost case anyway let me get this off my chest...

I bought a Samsung NX300M plus the stupid mic EM10. However the SOUNS QUALITY SUCKS. It is not because of the mic itself, it's because of the stupid Automatic Gain Control. I FEeL CHEATED. I feel ANGRY. I noticed that they disable this STUPID, STUPID feature from the NX1, thank god, but I don't have a NX1. And they only disable this in their last firmware. So they took YEARS to understand that their AGC is sucks... or was this deliberately just to anoy users?

Can someone explain me if there is any way of shut this off. It is ruining my áudio so bad. Is there any firmware update for it? How can you deceived people to buy this mic, and then give them a AGC? The áudio is unusable. We have the same experience with th 5D. Can someone please explain me what is in this people's minds? I'm sure this also happens with the nx 500, right?

I don't beleive this is possible. The same thing happens with the NX30. What is the real purpose of the AGC? To mess with one's life?

IS THERE ANYWAY TO SHUT IT OFF????? PLEASE!!!!

Thanks,

Filipe
