Re: NX100 stuck in "processing" and three pictures were lost

I have found the NX100 to be much more stable than the NX11 which had these lockups. The only problem with the NX100 was when the Smart mode which I rarely used ceased to respond to the shutter button but a menu reset sorted that. Apart from that it is very reliable and with the now very cheap viewfinder I do not miss the NX11 which I sold. It did take a couple of warranty returns to get it in this condition though but they have done a good job in repairing it.

Today something new and bad happened to my nx 100 for the first time.

I was taking a series of pictures in rapid succession (no burst mode, simply several clicks of the button in rapid sequece, let's say 1 per second more or less). After some pictures were taken, the camera didn't allow my to shoot anymore and "processing" was shown on the screen.

After about 1 minute, I tried to switch off the camera, but even then,"processing" was still displayed.

I waited a lot, say 10 minutes, and after that I pulled the battery away. After installing the battery back, I noticed that the last 3 pictures I took were not on the card.

Is this a camera failure or a card failure? Did anybody experience the same?

I have experienced the same with my NX11. It would occasionally lock up after several shots in a row. Usually if I was trying to display the preview or something. I always lost all shots in the buffer. I haven't had that happen with my NX200/20, but always wondered if the 100 or 10 would experience the same as the 11.
