  1. For now it ticked all upgrade boxes fo existing NX20 camera users.

I see no reason to tempt me to replace my NX20, basically the same sensor so no noticeable improvement in image quality. Good news for me as I couldn't afford to change camera this year anyway.

Must add - I see touch screen as a negative, not a positive

Have you suffered a recent blow to the head?

It has the Sensor in the NX300 so the noise is going to be better at higher ISO, and built in Phase Detection. The AF alone makes it a good upgrade.

It's not about sensor it really is about body. Some of the body changes, and the addition of a shooting mode dial is really very nice. The NX30 male organ is a meh feature for me, and the improvements to the OS are good. The big one is the Remote viewfinder.. meaning I'll finally have a wireless trigger.

Those features mean that the camera is more useable in many circumstance.

It apparently has a new Battery that is a little larger too... which is annoying.

My only significant complaint... the SD card slot placement makes it harder to make a battery grip for it.
