Re: NX1 prices dropping like crazy

Cheapest NX1 on ebay is now 900 with offer (body only), then next 1100+. On bid the cheapest is 750 and still has 3.5 days to run.
You made me hope they dropped to <500 and I went on ebay lusting for one only to be disappointed later
NX500 on the other hand are dropping. Down to 350 as min price now from 450 a month ago.
haha! Next year for sure!
that makes sense, NX1 is the only pro mirrorless APS-C together with the Fuji X-H1, or whatever it's called.
They do offer better grip, battery life, extra features/buttons/in-out, (for all those you will need the battery grip on the Fuji though, and it is already bigger and heavier than the NX), and that's it (in the video sense of course, I mostly talk about video, in photography you can add the X-T2 and that's that).
There are a lot of competing small mirrorless to go now, even though the NX500 exceeds most entry level cameras of 2018, still you can find good deals in the used market (especially Panasonic), and Sony cameras, even a6300, are cheap as chips, and most importantly, not abandoned.
I couldn't think of letting any of my NX cameras go at the moment though.
Not until we see the Canonikon mirrorless offerings, and that will take a couple of years to shape out, so, happy 2020 my trustworthy NX system!
Even selling everything now, gain 1 or 2 thousands of euros (more, than wait a year or two), isn't a big deal, if you consider that the top full frame cameras and lenses cost even more, while I can still use the ones I have now (so they earn their worth), while I am not sure if I was buying GH5/Fuji or Sony a6xxx now, that would be my system in 2021(I am expecting Canonikon to be really aggressive in the mirrorless front from now on, Canon already said so from the most official lips).
