is high ISO on NX100 any better than the NX10?

NX100, 20mm, 1/125 sec, F3.5, ISO 1600, 100% crop. Doesn't look like "significantly high ISO improvement" to me...

 
I feel also that Higher Iso is better. I got surprised by Iso6400 which seems usable for prints
 
NX100, 20mm, 1/125 sec, F3.5, ISO 1600, 100% crop. Doesn't look like "significantly high ISO improvement" to me...
Looks the same as the NX10 to my eyes. Probably identical sensor.

I'll be blunt..recent CMOS sensors 12mp and up thump this Samsung sensor badly for low light.

In fact my old 6mp CCD murders it as well.

Until Samsung can get a decent sensor in these models they'll not appeal to low light shooters.
 
you guys are weird..
first use raw.. the samsung has a pretty bad jpeg engine..

second use lightroom and set chroma noise red. to 50.. you can also load those jpeg samples.. looks absolutely fine to me. you guys probably never used or seen a image from a film camera.. really strange how they managed to produce amazing work in the last 80 or something years without digital cameras.. simply absurd what is going on here.. gear heads :P
 
They look the same as the NX10 ie 1600 ISO is a no go in jpegs but ok in RAW.

I have seen the UK price at £399, so about the same as a premium compact , so still a good camera for the money.
 
well.. you must be a professional cave shooter lol

the samsung raws have quite decent high iso performance.. remove chroma noise and you have good detail with lots of grain, but who cares.. look at old film photos there is noise all over the place.

by the way.. i make a good living from photography.
when was the last time you did a big print or sold any photos?

this is just a second camera system.. anybody really serious about photography would never get a nx.. autofocus, viewfinder, and so on just suck compared to good dslr.

but i dont understand why so many people (in this forum) dont understand the advantage of such a camera.

small, big sensor, fast pancakes.. take it with you if you dont want to haul around your dslr.

the 30mm f2 samsung is really high quality and if people are unable to take decent pictures with such a camera they dont deserve using a dslr.
 
That was (and is) the major problem to me with NX10, and I hoped they would do something about it in NX100. Do you see (feel) they did it?
first use raw.. the samsung has a pretty bad jpeg engine..

This thread is about high ISO performance improvements in NX system. Not about old film photos, not about good DSLR and not about your occupation, sorry.
 
Since I tried RAW, I never shot JPEG again.
There are less noise in RAW and you can correct it easily via Post Processing.
