thanks chrisrabe for the great review, and thanks technoworld for the additional feedback.

you guys have any idea how this compares to the nx20?  I've been wanting to get an nx300 but now I'm just not so sure anymore.  for me the compact size is the attraction, but add to that the annoyances added to this model. the misleading statement from their marketing guy that this is the fastest focusing mirrorless on the market really harms samsung's reputation and adds to my disappointment. also, the share stuff does absolutely nothing for me - they could take it out and it wouldn't make a difference - I just take the SD card and stick it into my computer to transfer the files.  I'd gladly trade the wireless for extra cache memory for better buffering and faster FPS overall.  and what I mean by faster frames per second, is that I make the distinction between FPS and time per frame!  time per frame does not specify a minimum duration, whereas fps implies a minimum 1 second duration, which this camera clearly does not deliver on!
