what happen to samsung, did their official recently lies to us about them not discontinuing. Why would they tell lies? What does that help them?
Best if for all ex samsung camera owner, to boycott, all samsung products, phones, tablets, computer, usb sticks, air con, TV, blu ray players, memory, ssd, vacuum cleaner, fridge etc.
Ban all samsung product, buy japanese, because they made almost all the photography toys.
I will buy whatever suits me and I do not want to limit my options.
I disagree.
Marrying into a system is about trust, integrity and communication. Samsung totally breached all of that and that's disgusting.
I think that's exactly how OP feels - angry, disappointed and betrayed.
This simply isn't about how good or bad Samsung NX products are anymore.
Amen. But I am not angry, dissapointed yes, and shocked that such business practice by Samsung might be indicative of the Korean Culture, which I hope it is not as my phone and car are Korean made/ capitalized products.
Samsung isn't exactly renowned for supporting any of its products for a long time, and there isn't a lot of loyalty to customers, you get the feeling they don't care which they probably don't.
Look at the galaxy NX, one firmware update and that was it - it didn't even get an upgrade from android jellybean. Same can be said for the galaxy camera etc etc.
It seems that Samsung likes to experiment with various things and is quite prepared to ditch them a moment later, with little regard for the guinea pigs that may have actually bought the products.
That's not to say that I have any regret buying samsung products. I still believe they are great value for money and of high quality. But I've always bought knowing that I'd still be satisfied if there were no more updates or the product line was discontinued. I was pleased with the Galaxy camera, galaxy nx, s4 zoom, k zoom, and now the NX1,which I only bought as I had several lenses already and didn't wish for any lenses that weren't in existence.
Even if I was annoyed at samsung, I would have little option but to stay with the NX system, as I couldn't afford a similar setup with another manufacturer.
Thankfully I have no desire to switch at the moment.
