Because it's primarily a stills camera, it wasn't designed as a "run and gun" video substitute.  4k is in there because Samsung feels it is no longer the future, but a standard of today, it was already in their phones for crying out loud.  It wasn't exactly to target it at video shooters.  NX1 is not actually that much bigger in practical use, and if that gives you the tools you want, then it's worth it.  If you're using external mic anyway, syncing only takes like 15 seconds, so it's no real barrier anyway.  I get the feeling that people that complain about that, umm, lets just say that if that 15 seconds is too much work then they're probably taking a lot of bad shortcuts in their work....
