Re: NX210 to NX300 - any gain ?

I once started a similar thread about upgrading from NX1000 (which I consider to be very similar to NX210) to NX300 - please have a look at it since there were a few useful replies.

I actually had a chance to handle an NX300 and here are my thoughts:

  • Overall shot-to-shot speed, AF speed and shutter lag - I felt that NX300 was better than NX1000, but not by a large margin. This is why I didn't decide to upgrade, especially when I found my ways around NX1000 shortcomings. However, I will be upgrading to NX500 because of its new AF system and way better low light behaviour.
  • I very much liked the touch screen, it makes focusing (in terms of moving the focusing square around the frame) a breeze.
  • I sometimes use manual focusing, thus focus peaking is a welcome addition.
  • The ability to define a minimum shutter time in the A mode is quite useful.
