Very nice.  I think you gave the NX3000 a little bit of help.

Re: Samsung NX 3000 update.

I really mean it the images I take as raw I feel all I can do is spoil them.I have three other camera kits with a good selection of lenses and I am finding the NX3000 very nice to work with and I will use it and then switch to others to settle which camera I will concentrate on

Re: Samsung NX 3000 update.

James, nice gallery, with many good shots - kudos!

I'm also intrigued by the little nx3000, whose sensor *and* JPEG engine seem quite above what the price today would suggest... (though the package does include a LR5, i value good in-cam JPEG a la Fuji/Oly for 95% of my shots)

As you have used both 16-50 PZ's from the NX and the NEX, what's your opinion on their optical performance for landscape and urban?

I need a light/unexpensive travel combo, and both the Nx3000 and the Alpha5000 offer a clean 20M sensor with an argued PZ16-50 (the NX seems better optically) for ca. 300E. My real costs are in learning/using/loving to work with a camera... Mitch

Re: Samsung NX 3000 update.

Thanks I do use raw and Lightroom 5 and can only say how much this camera has impressed me as I said in an earlier post the raw image looks so good.I am really carried away with it but I am mainly geared for sony in the lens dept so far.If you look at gallery have a look at detail in Spitfire image with 16mm prime wide open.

Re: Samsung NX 3000 update.

I have to agree. There's a couple of things I miss on my NX3000 (lack of external microphone support is the main one) so I'l hang onto my NX1100 for now, but I'm seriously impressed with my NX3000 and given I didn't have LR5 (or any earlier version) the opportunity to get a body only version (new but open box as Lens had been extracted) for £139, it is one of the best value buys I've had camera wise.

AF seems really fast to me and my 18-200mm lens no longer drains the battery (I suspected this was a firmware issue with the NX1100 which still wasn't properly fixed in the latest FW update).

There's a couple of minor irritations, but quality of output - especially with the pancake primes is not one of them.

The NX3000+16mm looks like a good combo.
