The nx300 has probably faster single af, but nx200 was more reliable.

I don`t like the sound of that - I`ve found the NX1000/1000 and 200/210 to be rock stable for AF, but dumped the NX20 because it was a bit hit and miss for some bizarre reason

Not bothered about video

I used both the nx300 & nx200 a lot, both were extremely stable. Everything about the nx300 was a little better for me, except the elimination of a usable back wheel that the nx200 had. I shoot manual raw and that did come in handy on the nx200, especially with the non-iFn 30mm lens. I'm glad there is a replacement for it on the nx500

To emphasize this more, of the four nx cameras I have used extensively, the nx300 was the most stable, reliable of them all - for 22 months of almost daily use it never had a hiccup.
