If you happen to be interested in the Samsung NX system (despite its lack of future) the Samsung two lens kit with the 20-50mm and 50-200mm lenses is on sale for $379 with free expedited shipping at B&H Photo.

If you have Samsung NX lenses, or you don’t need the kit lens bundled with the NX1, there is a sale at Adorama, you can get the Samsung NX1 body only for $1049 with free expedited shipping along with 4% promotional rewards (around $42 to be used in future Adorama purchases)… The NX1 with 16-50mm kit goes for $1200…

The Samsung NX system did not hitch a meteoric ride on the popularity of the Galaxy phones, but on the other hand, it’s still around, which may have been the “tide lifts all boats” impact of the Galaxy phones. Regardless, the current Samsung NX1 body only goes for $1100 at authorized dealers with some offering 4% promotional rewards ($44~) such as B&H Photo and others while retaining the same $1100 price offer a free Audio-Technica AT8024 mic (Adorama; the mic goes for $250 on its own).

On the other hand, if one is looking for a “serious kit”, the NX1 is bundled with the 16-50mm f2-2.8 S ED OIS lens for $2200 with 4% promotional rewards ($88~) at B&H Photo.

But if you want a better bang for the buck power-user deal, at Adorama you still pay $2200 for the NX1 with 16-50mm f2-2.8 S OIS but instead of the 4% promotional rewards, you get the Samsung ED-VGNX01 Vertical Battery Grip, an additional Samsung battery, and the Audio-Technica AT8024 camera-mount mic. So that’s three additional items instead of $88~ to be used in future purchases.

As of a late 12/19/15 recheck, this is sold out…

The Samsung NX500 with the 16-50mm f3.5-5.6 power zoom lens is now down to $500 with free shipping in your choice of black, brown or white at B&H Photo where you also earn 4% promotional rewards on this purchase (= $20~)… This kit was $650 last week per the Mirrorless Price Charts.

For a limited time only, Adorama has a Samsung NX1 bundle that includes the Samsung NX1 with the 16-50mm f3.5-5.6 Power Zoom OIS lens and the Audio-Technica AT8024 Stereo/Mono Camera-Mount Microphone, all together for $1400. It is temporarily on backorder but you can place an order if you like the price/combo… The Mic on its own goes for $250, so if you don’t need it, you should be able to trade/sell it for triple figures.
