Yes. Quite possible you all are right. Mine is just a case of bad luck and that's all.

But in my personal statistics, Samsung is just horrible. No way I would buy Samsung gear again (if it were possible, which doesn't sadly seem quite probable anyway), unless there's no other possible and comparable gear against them.

Sure, bad luck, but it's been MY bad luck and therefore I'm not convinced it's only bad luck in any way.

FYI...personal statistics may affect your purchasing but they aren't complete statistics-only part of a much larger whole. And the much larger whole says you've had bad luck or treat your gear like crap. Maybe the camera is just angry at you for hacking it. Here's a personal statistic for you: number of times I've hacked my NX cameras: 0. Number of issues I've had with my gear: 0. There have been reports of other NX owners having issues after having hacked the cam. Therefore my conclusion has to be: hacking can damage the camera.

If I were you I'd go buy some other brand. And I'll watch that brand forum to see if it was the gear or you.
