Re: Advantages NX500 over NX300.

I have owned 2 NX500, the NX300, NX3000, NX 3300, NX2000 and still own 2 NX Minis.

I rarely develop from RAW even though I always shoot RAW and jpeg simultaneously. And I just could not help but prefer the images coming from my NX300 and NX3000. The 2000 was OK but the 3300 was different to the NX3000. I could not put my finger on it but pictures lacked the 3D feel. And I had a similar experience with both NX500s. In jpeg I could not get them to match the clarity and 'realness' of the pictures coming from the NX300 especially, but also the NX3000.

I sold all but the Minis as I needed a main camera with a viewfinder. I did not want to invest in a NX1 but then found a good deal on the Galaxy NX. I haven't tried it yet since I bought it through German Ebay and it is at my parents house - I'm in the US).

In my opinion, for stills in jpeg, the NX300 is the better choice (for me). I just prefer the jpeg 'rendering'. Now RAW could be a different story.
