However at the same time, Samsung has been pulling out of several markets which if anything certainly looks like they’re preparing to exit the market at some point in the future.

In the meantime since Samsung has not officially announced that they have quit the camera business, there are a group of loyal fans who seem to want to keep the camera business alive and have since petitioned Samsung to not discontinue the NX1 camera.
