Samsung NX10 still good?

Re: Samsung NX10 still good?

Still a great camera. I use it up to ISO 800 very often. I shoot RAW always and the biggest difference for me was actually upgrading to Lightroom 5, I found the noise reduction tool much improved in 5 when applied to NX10 RAWs so I don't really mind using ISO 800 now and sometimes will use 1600. However, it depends on the situation: some of my recent shots in an aquarium were all terrible because of the very low light levels. I often find just removing the chroma noise (the horrible colourful noise) is fine as luminance noise is quite acceptable to me in many situations.

Lack of budget means I will continue to use my NX10 and NX100 (same sensor). I'd love to upgrade but my main aim there would probably be faster autofocus (I have a toddler).

All the shots on my flickr and 500px are with these cameras so you can take a look, although being landscapes they're mostly at low ISO. High ISO shots are mostly family shots which I don't share online. ... just looked through what I have online I think this is my only 1600 ISO shot: https://flic.kr/p/nz23h8

And this my only ISO 800 shot:
