Eric: thanks for replying to the question about NX20 reliability. I thought I was going blind as I adjust my NX20's diopter knob continusously.
I thought I was going blind also.
It seems to go out of focus when switching to/from manual, or most commonly when zooming. I can still bring the picture back into focus but based on what you and others have discovered, I am sending my NX20 to Samsung to have them repair the diopter.
I hate that tiny dial, I can barely get my fingers on it and the "clicks" are "mushy". I don't know if I am turning it or not half of the time. I go back and forth and finally just settle some where, a little frustrated at times. Can they actually "fix it"? I am reluctant to send it in if it is going to come back similar to the way it is now. I was "writing it off" to poor design. Does anyone know what it is like after it is "repaired"?
I think it is poor design, mine is working now, as new, which is to say it is a little tough to turn and rattles a bit if you shake the camera, but at least I can see through the viewfinder now
Mine has definitive click stops and will move through the range. Before it was broken/jammed somehow and couldn't be adjusted at all.
