Re: NX30 compared to NX20

I now have the NX30 on order.  I am having it delivered to a non Canadian address to save on shipping cost, import fees and taxes - which amounted to $200.00 (so well worth the wait of a few weeks).  I really like the feel of my NX20 but have been reading a LOT of reviews about the "cheap plastic body" and "empty feeling" of the NX30.  Did they change it substantially from the NX20??

Second question - I am looking to order a spare battery.  I noticed Amazon has the BP-1410 "Nowmowa" brand for $15.99 and it is 1600mAh (claims to have a longer run time than the Samsung original).  Anyone own of of these??

I was in your shoes. I owned the nx20 and recently upgraded to the nx30 with concerns as well. To me the nx30 is worth the upgrade and you won't even think about build quality after using it. The grip is improved and very comfortable for someone with bigger hands such as myself.
