Happy with my first serious camera

Hi,

After a lot of reading on this forum I decided to post something for the first time. Recently, due to reading many reviews and discussions about the Samsung Camera's I bought my first mirrorless system. The NX3300 with 16-50 PZ lens.

Unfortunately a week after my purchase I read about Samsung quitting the camera business all together. And I was really thinking about returning the camera and go for a Sony or a MFT system. After a lot of reading I couldn't find any Mirrorless camera which can compete with the NX3300 for 279 euro. I also found a good deal on a broken NX100 with a 50-200 OIS II and a 20-50 Kit lens for 50 euro.

330 euro in I decided to keep the NX3300. After a week I found a good deal on an 30mm Pancake voor 99 euro. No camera(set) can compete with the price point and quality ratio I'm in right now so there was no way back.

Again when reading a lot about the NX camera system and due to Samsung quitting I had set my eyes upon used NX10, NX20, NX30 and NX300's (something about GAS right?) And due to Samsung quitting there are some good deals on the second hand market.

So 3 days ago I bought a NX30 which is 5 months (and barely used) old with warranty for 250 euro. I wanted an EVF and a touch screen which I have now.

So, for 678 euro I have an

- NX30 with 18-55 Kit lens

- NX3300 with 16-50 PZ Kit lens

- 50-200 OIS II

- 30mm Pancake

- 20-50

Is there any better deal? Not sure what to with the brand New NX3300 since I have an NX30 but okay..Just wanted to share my thoughts.

You have a wonderful setup. Put the 30 on that nx3300 and make it your pocket camera.

No need to spend anymore cash at this moment. Just enjoy what you have. Eventually you might consider picking up the 2 s lenses.
