The NX20 with 45MM, New Year's Day 2014:

NX500 with 60MM, yesterday:

The NX20 holds its own very well, and imho, is one of the all-time most under-rated cameras ever made.

Great comparison. I really enjoy my NX30 and would imagine it performs similarly to the NX20. Shows that you don't need the newest model to get fantastic results.

thanks for taking the time to share these examples.

Oddly, I prefer the NX20 colors to the NX500 ones, even if the NX500 is closer to real.

Had Canon released the NX20, it would have received raves....

Love those comparison photos. Really good move using low ISO with the NX20 exposure; that's where it really works best.

These are the two NX cameras I have. There are some very nice pluses for the NX500 over the NX20. However, I like to carry both sometimes on my hikes; the 45mm or 60mm on the NX20 and a wider angle prime on the NX500. The NX20 is very comfortable to use and the EVF I think really works well and I wear glasses.

I would agree; the NX20 is very underrated.

Let me go back and redo the NX500.  Both are RAW edits.  While the NX500 is sharper, the NX20 is overall "better".
