NX2000

Hi all,

Dropped my NX200 hard a few months back. Initially flaky, but came back to life. Now seems to have finally stopped working.  (and I just gave away my NX100 to a friend since I wasn't using it)

Debating between 300 and 2000. I'm upset they removed the rear dial, but it looks like the rear dial is gone on both 300 and 2000.  I might learn to live with the touch screen only.

Any comments on the buffer clearing performance on the 2000? I was annoyed by small buffer and slow clearance on the 200 (all bursts I needed to switch to jpeg and it was generally sluggish when shooting RAW even for singles), but could live with it.

Is sensor performance comparable?

The way I see it is:

NX2000 Pros: cheaper, lighter

NX300 pros: tilting display, (more responsive buffer?, more responsive general performance/AF?, better sensor?)

Thanks for the feedback.

Re: NX2000

You can still get the 1100 which has all the features of the 200 except the top dial (it has the rear dial and all the buttons ) - Beware also that the 2000 moved to fiddly Micro SD cards whereas the 1100 uses proper SD cards like the 300, 200 , 20, 30  etc  .

You may like the touchscreen only interface of the 2000 but it would stop me in my tracks from even considring one . The 300 would be the best as its like a 200 with a touchscreen as well ( think you can disable it though) and the latest developments

Keep in mind the NX3000 will be coming out soon. Mirrorless Rumors reported a leak today: http://www.mirrorlessrumors.com/samsung-nx3000-to-be-announced-soon-name-leaked-in-indonesia.

May want to wait if possible, but who knows how long until the official announcement/release.

@shark81 Good find, but your linky is broken.  Tip: just remove the full-stop punctuation at end of URL.

Well, I bit and bought the 300.  On sale at Adorama for $399 (white) with the 20-50 + 4% back in points.
