I am using my NX cameras until know.

I have a Pocket4K as a dedicated video camera and I just got a Canon R7 to re-introduce myself to the Canon eco systen.

Ibis is good to have, though not a deal breaker for me. The Canon AF is ace, and probably the best in business right now. Canon offers 10bit video Clog3 and better ISO performance.

These last 2 are very significant for me, and why I finally invested on a different system, after 9 good years with Samsung I had to move on a bit and see something more modern.

Still the total NX experience is the best in business for me and my needs. Best menu system, ergonomics, features, oled screens, native lenses and so many more..

I will be using both systems for a while now, and see where it will take me. Maybe sell some stuff (e.g NX3000 like new, some tele lenses because I have EF glass) but some things are not easy to find on the RF world.

hTe miniscule NX500 with the extra elegant design, paired with the amazing pancake primes, or the best ergonomic camera ever made (NX1) paired with the "baby Leica" 45mm for fun, and one of the best pro lenses ever made (16-50S) for business..the fish eye is a must for me too..all the rest are there, 28mgpxls (Canon is 32) BSI sensor (Canon is not), H265 video for 78min - if you will, unbeatable touch interface and a few other goodies with a very modern AF system and DIS..

I will be very reluctant to give my NX stuff away, there are so many things I miss when I am using other systems. The only sector I am not missing anything is the all around lens, as I have the 12-100mm 4f Olympus for m43 and the EF-S nano 18-135mm (adapted with vND adapter) for Canon.

After so many years, some of us realize that the biggest advantage of the NX system, were the NX lenses. Unique designs very cleverly introduced, or upgraded when needed be.

Add the super sexy and super ergonomic designs, and the ultimate technology that Samsung used back in 2015-16, and you have a perfectly relevant system, still..
