can anyway, give me a good explanation, why, Samsung MX500 doesn't offfer a mic input? Only one reason,

It's very simple: it's a consumer model and very few consumers are going to add an external mic. If you want that capability you need a better camera. Samsung kept the models very clearly defined: NX500=consumer: no EVF, cropped sensor 4K, no mic input. NX1=Pro/prosumer: EVF, no forced crop sensor video, mic input.
