Why? 1st because the Sony A6300 is better, and less expensive than the NX1, even bought new. And there might be a price drop any time,
I did mention the NX1 but the focus of this thread is cheap end of line NX500s (the NX1 will drop like a stone in price in time) and it`s irrelevant how good the A6300 is when there isn`t a single decent native APS-C zoom for the thing - hence the massive market for manual glass adapters and even Sigma has made a canon AF Adapter for the thing
M43 has superb glass, the sensors are still quite a way behind
Ok Adam, but don't you think that it a rush decision never tooks us anywhere? I mean, prices should be dropping, not climbing... These prices are ridiculous, and there are people that is buyng Nx500, and Nx1, at these prices just out of fear...
I want to buy a NX camera, but these prices, and thes madness, is making me change to Sony, or to Panasonic... or maybe to cell phone, who knows? Maybe Samsung will invent an incredible camera for their cell phones... for half a price...
First, there are incredible opportunities to buy NX for cheap, you don't have to buy from the highest seller, and then, people are not buying NX out of fear (fear of what?!), but because they are still incredible cameras with very interesting mods/hacking , that excites a lot of people,(particularly videographers), there are quite a few that state that they bought into NX after learning about the mods.
Keep calm and NX!
I think people are buyng NX cameras as a backup camera.
"...people are not buying NX out of fear (fear of what?!)"
Fear of having spent so much on lenses, and end with no body to use them, because as we know, you can use canon lenses,Sony and nikon lenses, on loads of bodies, with adapters, but you can't use NX lenses on other than NX cameras, right? Fear of being stuck with a dead system...
In first hand, these are the normal pirices. Not the highest. If you know where I can get the NX1, for less than 1000$ please send me the link. In Europe, I mean.
On ebay.co.uk, this is the lowest I found:
