Yugi,
Thanks for replying. I suggested to disregard the bottom portion of your table (danger of vapour ware and not usable now) there is not that much left. But I think I stop now - I don't want to engage in Samsung bashing, brand war doesn't serve anyone.
The point I was trying to make: I do not like road-map arguments. If it is not in the shops now it doesn't count.

Samsung was standing behind it's promises so far. They've got 4 out of 5 lenses released in 2011, most were delayed a couple of months. 16-80 planned to be released in December, but now they say it will be released together with a new body NX20, which will have an EVF and a tiltable screen. They also plan to release 12-24 at the same time. So far their system looks much better than any other mirrorless system to me.
I already have the following lenses: 20/2.8, 30/2, 50-200/4-5.6. This is very compact setup. I'm planning to buy 16/2.4 and 55/1.8 pancakes. No other manufacturer such a good selection of pancakes as Samsung.
