Tempted to get 2 NX1 cameras
2

After years the price is coming down.  Fujifilm probably passed the NX1 but I am not a fan of xtrans.  The NX1 IMHO is still better than other APSC cameras.

i could live with the two F2.8 zooms and the 85mm prime.  Maybe the macro too.

I’d probably get a 2nd body too.

Samsung NX1

What don’t you like about X Trans?

I use DxO Deep Prime and other software that doesn’t play nice with it.

You should, the NX1 has better colors than Sony and Panasonic FF (I have the A7RIV and S5) and the dynamic range is almost as good for pictures. And the 50-150mm is magic, I tried the 70-200mm GM / S Pro, and while these lenses are sharper wide open, the 50-150mm S is the best IMO, the swirly bokeh is lovely and the colors are out of this world.
