Samsung NX1 is dynamite stuff!
7

I bought the Samsung NX1 about 9 months ago. Rode with motorcycles through Africa and Europe with a Nikon P7700 and wanted something with lenses but still be compact, light and strong. Then this http://www.dpreview.com/products/samsung/slrs/samsung_nx1 little thing came out. I am no professional photographer but this thing seriously impressed me. It lived in my tank bag on my motorcycle for 7 months, through rain,dust, vibrations and everything else. It's intuitive to mobile users and has all the electronic stuff needed of a modern camera, and had some pretty damn impressive specs. I also did not want to spend stupid money on a Sony or a full DSLR that might be stolen at some point. Now after the fact, and as I was always a bit oblivious about the snobbery within the camera community people told me if I dont own a Sony or Fuji I will never have good photos. This thing takes good photos for what I think.
