Technology is great (for Leo Posing)

Don't have any proper images to post yet, but just wanted to share how pleased I am with the recently acquired NX2000.

Guess there's a camera that's built for each of us somewhere, just have to find it. Somehow nearly all the negatives from reviews (ok, apart from the buffer) turn into positives in my case (perhaps because it cost 2/3 of the previous compact camera - Sony HX20V).

Lack of manual controls? So what, the touch controls aren't really slower, but we also get one of the biggest screens which really helps to compose the shot right there and avoid cropping later.

20MP - it's been said how the higher numbers are just empty marketing and basically you get a better image thanks to having bigger elements that catch more light, etc. This might be a case for a small sensor, but man, is the difference obvious with an APS-C sized one, like the NX2000 has. So much detail - especially if you shoot RAW (this image has been processed and resized, but you still get to see all those hairs - would be mush on many other cameras).

MicroSD card? Awesome! Just pop it out, put it into a tablet and use Photo Mate R2 to manage and process your RAW files. The downside here might be colour accuracy (due to the tablet's screen), but for hobby shots it seems plenty good. Also, it's more future-proof.

Couple of minutes later you have a file in the cloud, ready to share:

Sure there are some things to improve (buffer, video quality, get in-body OIS in there, wireless modes need work), but still, makes you say - Technology is great!
