Samsung NX is dead.
Doubt it
Agreed. What they have with the NX1 and NX500 is just too good to throw away. The issue I’ve noticed is that it is next to impossible to walk into a store and try out their cameras. For the past few months I’ve been doing research into what camera to get before I go on vacation, and everytime I look, the NX1 seems to be my best option.
Having a Sony Zeiss 35/1.4 side by side with a Sony G 85/1.4 would be ridiculous.
I wish Sony would stop throwing cr*p at the wall to see what sticks and work on actual lens lines (like Loxia, Batis).
I just love how they say Samsung didn’t react to the rumor, thats worrying? All major corporations do not respond to rumors especially since they already responded about a month ago. Makes no sense. Its all just click bait.
Sony 85/1.4. Large & heavy as its SLR counterpart. Not a mirrorless way. Especially when we already have 85/1.8 from Zeiss. 75/1.8 please!
