Why no chance? You think not enough donations for it? Put up the NX1 burner link, I'll finance that one myself if need be. Also, pm me when you do, I'm not always good about following each forum thread. They may be difficult, but my semi reasonable #1 and #2 requests are, for the ok button to toggle focus peaking and have it remain on after shutter press, and for the zoom area when MF to be set-able instead of center point only :P. I know what we want isn't always achievable, but I would appreciate these in particular. The NX500 is now funded by the way... they wouldn't take my VISA for some reason, no idea why... had to use the Mastercard.

Hi ttbek,

Thanks a lot for covering the difference - that was not only unexpected but also very altruistic on your part.

I am going to order the camera today, and will keep everyone posted on progress.

First order of business, once I get it, will be to see if I can disassociate keyscan from bluetooth so there would be no longer any problems with boot delays.

Thanks again!

PS. regarding a burner NX1: I am not sure there will be a need for one - it is very similar to NX500 from a bootand firmware perspective so once we have a safe way to work deep in the camera, there should be no danger to any NX1.

I will also ask otto k to comment on this,

kind regards
