I still have a couple of lenses and two bodies (NX500 and NX3300)
Sony A gear owners have an upgrade path, so their older equipment is being traded on in the normal course of events.
Good points. Question is what would make it collapse?Sony A gear owners have an upgrade path, so their older equipment is being traded on in the normal course of events.
Samsung NX users have no other option than to buy second-hand if they wish to continue to utilize their lens investment. The inevitably diminishing number of working bodies will continue to maintain a buoyant resale market until it collapses completely

I must admit that I have reduced using my NX500 for videos because there's no external mic input possible (I use Sony a68 now). I miss the OIS but the AF is faster; significantly much less focus hunting, and; even less noisy AF with Sony 16-50mm f/2.8 SSM than it was with NX 18-200mm OIS lens.
By the way, which were the last/best models that support Samsung EM10 microphone? NX3300? NX300?
My new set-up for candid/home videos:

When the availability of replacement high-end NX cameras becomes so limited that there's simply not enough to meet demand, users will need to switch away to another system and their lenses will, eventually, flood the market.Good points.

So, when the lens prices start to drop and people sell their systems there will be an increased number of nx1s and nx500s for sale and the prices of those will drop?? And the lenses will increase in price again?? My head is spinning.When the availability of replacement high-end NX cameras becomes so limited that there's simply not enough to meet demand, users will need to switch away to another system and their lenses will, eventually, flood the market.Good points.

As the prices of lenses start to drop, more users will try to sell their systems before the invested value disappears completely and so exacerbate the scenario!
Hopefully my NX5 will still be working and I'll be able to pick up a 30mm f/2 for peanuts
The prices will drop because there won't be any competition to buy them. As the "high-end" users move out of the system there's likely to be very few new users who'll want to buy into an ageing and unsupported system except as a "novelty item", just 'cos it's cheap
Hahaha...I think that would be the time for me to pick up the things I don't have. NX1; 16-50 f/2.0-2.8; 85mm f/1.4; 50-150mm f/2.8 :-DSo, when the lens prices start to drop and people sell their systems there will be an increased number of nx1s and nx500s for sale and the prices of those will drop??
