You totally lost credibility by saying that xpro2 has better af.

He lost me here: "I'd say my new Fuji XPro2 blows it out of the water, and so does a few other mirrorless systems I regularly shoot with."

Apparently every mirrorless system blows NX1 AF out of water (in the end there is only a few of them, esp. when we exclude Samsung and Fuji that are mentioned explicitly). Not to mention that I find it hard to believe that anyone would short regularly with all mirrorless systems. Why? WHy? Why? Troll only knows.

Or he may be someone with just a different opinion!

You can have an opinion if you like something or not, and not about measurable and verifiable feature like AF. Especially, that I haven't seen grounbreaking AF advances from other vendors in the meantime, while NX1 was universally praised for it's AF.

It is obvious that NX1 is not the groundbraking camera that was at 2014, but I bought mine just recently, and after all the camera announcements I am very happy I did, because for me -and my needs, is the best allaround true hybrid out there. Some brands have some advantages (e.g the new Sony/Fuji 24mpx sensor in low iso, especially for video) but as a whole, the NX1 seems excellent, and I still have so much use of my beloved NX500 at the same time.

Fuji has video advantage? First time hear about it here.

And one has to consider other things except the sensor -which NX is still the only 28 BSI sensor out there, not something prehistoric from the Canon arsenal- like ergonomics, user interface, touch screen implementation, a few unique modern tricks(such SAS-it may look like a gimmick, but is fun to do those with kids as it is very entertaining and game like,iFN that I use regularly, etc), battery consumption, overheating (or rather, the lack of it), modern operating system (with all the advantages of it, look at the mod/hack scene), plus the lenses, that in general is far from complete,

and then you say that you're completely set with remaining samsung options. If complete means canon then all other vendors are far from complete. If complete means APS-C, then only fuji has more lenses and not all of them are equal or better (e.g. samsung pancakes, both 16-50 zooms etc).

for my needs, and for the price paid, I am very content with them. I wish Samsung had some of the Fujis I would like,but in the other hand, I have 6-7 now, and I wouldn't have a lot more, plus some are really excellent for my needs (10 fisheye, 30, 45, 12-24), and I am missing one in the 85 or 50-150 realm right now, after that, I am completely set. It is good to have 100 lens options, but in the end, you(or the vast majority) won't have more than 7-8, and as I do a lot of video, Fuji was never an option for me.

You know, there are a few members of this forum who are helpful, positive, and in general make the forum a good place to ask and answer questions about our Samsung cameras.

What a shame I can't ask a specific question regarding my camera without starting an argument.

You sound like little boys who are fighting over toys, instead of grown men able to discuss the merits of a particular camera, or who has the best kit. Do you even take pictures with all your gear?

I'm a member of a very popular women's photography forum, and not once in 3 years have I seen posts that even come close to the nasty tone I see here almost every time I read this forum. (Any other women members here-contact me

OK, so you're better because you're woman.I have never head about photography forum for men.  It would be immediately attacked as discriminate, possibly by women from women's photography forum.

and I'll show you a place where you can chat about photography in a pleasant environment).

I'm taking my ball and going home. If I need anything else, I'll private message the one or two lead members who can discuss issues without bashing other's opinions.

Go ahead...... have at it..... prove me correct.....

Done. You're better human and proud about it.

Oh and BTW I found the 50-150 S lens that I asked about in this thread originally well below retail price.
