My attempt at low light. This was with Luca's NXL and a Sigma 30mm 1.4. Still trying to get better results. Will try the settings mentioned in the original post on my next low light shooting opportunity. Thanks for sharing!

Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 isn't a full frame lens so you would get vignetting!

I wasn't sure how bad it would be considering the NX-L doesn't give you a true full frame image. Also, I have an NX500 which has a digital crop on 4k. Wasn't sure how it would look on that either.

You're in luck mate, looks like the gen2 is just finished and available from the creator (luca) here:

I definitely would love to acquire one for my NX1, but the comments here showing people ordering in February and 5 months later not having their NXL delivered yet have kept me hesitant to purchase on the crowdfunding site:

If I was to buy it this week, I would want it by next week. If that can be guaranteed by buying it used, I felt like that was a safer bet. I must admit though, I am torn by the details of the new revision. I shoot regularly with my NX1. If I could effectively turn it into a full frame equivalent, I'd buy a 2nd body for my social media video ads business.I shoot in low light often and to have the extra stop is a gamechanger:
 

I also shoot a lot of real estate spots. Having the wider field of view along with a wide angle lens would really help me get better results for my clients:

I am super impressed with what Luca has done with the NXL.

He's sent me one for review!

It is super sharp and cinematic. Has the full frame look completely. Trying it with the Canon 35mm F2.0L IS but will also use it with the 50mm F1.2L... Big low light boost to the NX1!

I would really like to see the video from the NX1/NX-L combo paired with a Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 Art Lens. Is there any way you can make that happen Andrew?

I am going to be exiting out of the NX system and was Backer #1 for the Nxl.  If anyone is interested, let me know before I start posting it on the usual for sale forums.  I am based in the USA.

Hey Alan, do you still have the NXL for sale? Im in NJ and would be interested in acquiring it. Let me know.

How hard would it be to remove the block on the NX1 so that the Samsung Camera Manager app functions while using manual lenses? Would be great to have wireless live view while using non Samsung Glass. Thanks everyone! 

BTW, for anyone interested in developing, I am posting the link for accessing all NX1 firmware files again for ease of access. I usually grant access pretty quickly when a request comes in. Access the files here: https://drive.google.com/a/cmcfirm.com/folderview?id=0Bwt0uzFgEoRkQ2ZLOUJOM295UGM&usp=sharing

The entire firmware history (v1.01, v1.10, v1.20, v1.21, v1.22, v1.30, v1.31, v1.32, and v1.40) for the NX1 is now archived in that link:

Happy to help and really am impressed by what you all have accomplished thus far!

I posted up on the Metabones page asking for smart adapter support. Feel free to follow up on my request there.
Luca, fantastic work brother! Sign me up to your wait list. I want one.  

I am quoting myself above as a quick reference to anyone who needs access to the OEM NX1 firmware. Great job everyone! The progress is better than I could have ever imagined. Just signed up with FilmConvert today and got some tasty new NX1 profiles to work with. Loving life as an orphaned Samsung NX1 and NX500 owner right now!

Short answer... No

Also pease upload both to the cloud vault of historical FW. Sorry can't remember who was in charge of that:

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/EV-NX500ZBMJUS#manualsDownloads

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/EV-NX1ZZZBZBUS#manualsDownloads

I don't see any new version of user manuals, that to me indicates that there are no new features.

Ive added the latest firmware to the NX1 Firmware History Folder:

Also, still wondering if the Samsung Camera Manager App can be made to work with manual lenses for live view. It would be enormously helpful considering Samsung has only a few lens choices and the various adapters give us a much wider selection of options.

If you are still missing those FW, you may thank archive.org:

Made a copy on my drive just in case.

As for my wishlist I would love to see recording time limit gone.

Thanks sidi! Files have been added to my drive link posted above. Posting it again for ease of access here:

Access GRANTED my man!  

I'm with Geoff. Per EOSHD:

"Nov 20, 2014 - When the NX1 was being developed in Samsung's lab, the sensor output ran at 6.5K raw at 240fps."

http://www.eoshd.com/2014/11/samsung-nx1-review-glory-technology/

This is theoretically possible. For me though, I'm hoping at least 240fps 1080p, possibly even 4k. Also would like 14 bit RAW video like Magic Lantern offers. Changed recording limits would be useful. 

No problem Marco! Glad to help. Access has been granted.

Thanks TILT!

I am missing v1.01 and v1.10. That completes the entire firmware history for the NX1. 

In here as well with an NX1 and NX500. 

The Firmware Files I have are v1.20, v1.21, v1.22, v1.30, v1.31, v1.32, and v1.40. I have uploaded them to my Google Drive and you can access the link here:

Former Canon/ML user looking for some love on the NX line. Looking forward to seeing what you can do. I'm in with a donation as well.

Thanks!
