Re: Advantages NX500 over NX300.

This is interesting. The reason I grew so disillusioned with Nikon was the terrible colour from the latest models at the time compared to earlier models.

I find the NX500 to produce fantastic, true colours unlike anything I have seen from other cameras. To say there are even better images available from an earlier Samsung model is amazing. I am, of course, only comparing the JPEGs as I have never found a good raw converter. I recently bought Pixelmator and Affinity Photo for the iPad and will check if they work with Samsung raw files.

Considering the fantastic HDR of the iPhone 12s, I will also be interested to see what can be done with the HEVC files from the NX500 video, especially with hacked high bitrate etc. The NX500 is the gift that keeps on giving - I would struggle to let it go purely because of its 3D lens, let alone the lens quality and files.
