Lol, well, not sure what there is to disagree with. This was my experience. And it was dreadful. And implying loose lens mounts is a user error is pretty funny! Suspect we simply have different levels of standards which is fine. Mine is high - not too high - but it has to be equal to that of Nikon or Canon or Fujinon or Olympus. And, unfortunately, Samsung wasn't and was actually far below the others.

Anyway, all manufacturers have there issues and struggles. But its likely Samsung had too many. There's reasons why they're not in the biz anymore. It wasn't because they lacked technical performance. It wasn't that they had crazy high prices. We can only use our imaginations as to why they exited but something made it unprofitable.

Even if the NX-1 was perfect it would still be a questionable decision to buy into a system that is dead IMO.

Good day, sir.

You either had a bad experience and have taken on a personal agenda against all NX gear OR you just like trolling.

I had 3 NX bodies, multiple lenses over the years and none of them failed on me. If anything I was a Nikon shooter myself and Samsung at the time provided a much better value for money offerings so I switched. Even with your "dead system" reference, zero regrets and will happily buy another NX camera any day.

I got to use the D500 and D5500 and they are both great cameras in their own right but bagging a whole brand just because you *may* or may not had a bad experience is a bit silly.
