negative. no such thing exists.

Did anybody say Black NX80? Wish there was but no rumors from Sony. I too like the Black color. :(

[cykalan]

Eddy, new avatar again? NX73's colour is pretty cool indeed. But I will prefer European version...again....not BLACK....:(

and I have send you a PM too.

[Eddy]

yeah, kinda like to have changes one in a while, you just get bored at looking at the same avatar all the time. But as you might probably see, my avatars mainly are based on the black NXs. :D
I think I'm a bit obsessed since having my GunMental grey NX70V. :p
I can see you've changed your avatar as well, nice touch up with the Jumbo & you can now clearly distinguish the A/C type as well as the Airline too! :)

I too is somewhat thinking about the European Version NX73 myself, since it's BT built-in, maybe have a look next time heading to european ports. :D

[cykalan]

not a bad idea to pick one at European ports indeed. :D

hopefully i will be online asap. :(

How to purchase a Black NX80:

1. Purchase NX80.

2. Purchase 1 can spraypaint and screen cover.

3. Lay down a large sheet of newspaper on a flat surface and carefully place NX80 on top of it.

4. Carefully place screen protector on NX80 screen making sure to cover all real estate of the screen.

5. Shake spraycan of spraypaint. Shake it well.

6. Spray NX80 with a nice even coating making sure not to soak it.....whatch the openings as well as you don't want paint to get into the components.

7. Let dry.

Ok kids don't do this trick at home, it was just a joke, there is no black NX80, I would had gotten one too if they were out, and the NX73 was not enough.

that was good doug! lol! :)

[cykalan]

no no no, that is not the right way. the correct way is:

1. get a NX80 from Japan
2. get a NX73 from Europe
3. do appropiate modifications to the camera mount to fit the NX80 cam into the NX73 case
4. swap over the cases
5. and probably also take the bluetooth chip out of the NX73 and put it into the NX80.

Now you got a Black NX80 with Bluetooth! :)
(+ you got a Metallic NX73 without Bluetooth! :D )

[Eddy]

I knew somebody would be coming up with the spray paint thing, LOL :D

Then Alan with the case swapping too! but how would you have a black NX80? :confused:
1. get a NX80 from Japan This would be Silver Color
2. get a NX73 from Europe This would still be in Silver Color

gotcha! he he :D

[Unregistered]

they make

[ricleo]

Hahaha, LOL... great eyes you have there Eddy! So there's still no way to get a NX80 in black with bluetooth except for the spray paint option :p I almost tried the spraypaint option with my NR70v, but decided to sell it for cash instead! Haha.. if it's too risky an operation on the Nr70 that has been opened by almost every Tom, Dick and Harry, its too risky for my NX80 :)

I've actually wondered if this would work. Not so much about the color, but about combining the BT from the European NX73 with the camera of the NX80. It's a little late now, but I'd have paid a premium for anyone who could have custom-assembled a working model of this.
