Re: Is it unwise to buy NX now?

I personally wouldn't invest much more in the system.  I still make use of my NX1 and gear, but I think if I were buying new gear today I would go Fuji if I was more into the photography aspect, and maybe Sony if I was into the video/action aspect.

Several years later, the NX1 is still one of the best cameras on the market (or at least had potential to be).  I am sad the Samsung seems to have axed that entire division. Would have been nice if they sold it off.  The entire camera market seems to have stalled out.  Uber expensive without competition and lower sales, mostly to strong enthusiasts and pros.

I imagine I will keep using my Samsung for a while, but if prices are high I might sell now and just pick up a nice Fuji with a couple lenses as I really don't use my camera much anymore.
