My Galaxy NX was in the mail today and, after charging it up, I gave it a quick spin.
Unfortunately, I've run into several issues already.
1. Sometimes, it crashes while saving. This is rather frustrating, since I already lost a very nice series of exposures today. Is there anything that can be done to alleviate this? I already made sure to turn off Wifi and GPS, but to no avail.
Try these two things:
1. Install the firmware again no both camera and lens. Update if necessary.
2. Format the sd-card. If that doesn't help, then change the sd card.
2. In low light, I can see a red dot in the upper left corner of the display/viewfinder. It's not visible on any photos I take (including a test shot with a lens cap on). Is this a "feature" or do I have a faulty sensor?
3. I also had the camera app lock up while focusing (from that point forward, it was impossible to refocus). Is this very common or just bad luck on my part?
Its not common.
I really liked the prospect of switching over to the Samsung lineup of mirrorless cameras (the NX1 would've been my next toy, once prices had gotten down), but if those "smart cameras" are as frustrating as smart watches, I might have to rethink it.
EDIT: I just checked the screen again and it appears the camera also suffers from a total of four dead pixels (white dots that can already be seen on a light gray background).
Am I really just that unlucky, or is the quality of the Galaxy NX generally suspicious?
