Nx3000 developer mode

Does anyone know the correct key sequence to access the developer mode on the nx3000?

Ive tried a few different sequences I've found in here, substituting the EV button for the trashcan, but no luck so far.

Re: Nx3000 developer mode

Do you have nx_dev.adj file with

smart_camera

(no new line) in it on sd card?

No I haven't but I'm willing to try this - how do I do it?

I've just seen this thread https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3979382

So will give it a go - thanks!

Unfortunately not. I came to the conclusion that this wouldn't work at all on the nx 3000 so got a cheap Nx 1000!

You could also try modifying the lens mount with tape to enable the lens adapter to work. There are videos demonstrating this on YouTube although I could never get it to work.

Why NX1000? Is it similar to the NX3000?

I care about unlimited video for the NX3000 but I can't find a solution, it's video performance is interesting though, much more "organic" than Nx300.

Does anyone know a similar to NX3000 video performance? Even if it records for a bit less than 1 hour is going to be perfect.

I got an Nx 1000 purely as I knew that the hack would work with this camera, and I could enable the option to shoot without a lens.

I'm already using adapter with tape..it's a ok solution until I don't have to switch lenses often or in fast paced situations as it's happening to me lately, as the tape would come out of adapter and even risk to get in the camera body - googling around looks like the developer option trick is just top secret for nx3000, I found out they use Itron4 OS, if that could help find any solution? - or maybe I should just go for a easily hackable nx300

NX300 is a much better camera in anyway, well, except video! NX300 suffers from a terrible encoder. I bought NX3000 especially for the slightly more organic video performance (which I will test thoroughly in exactly 18 days from today!).

I care for the "unlimited video" option, so if anyone knows something about it (which I doubt, since this question exists for a good 3 years now), please share with us.

I just do not understand how NX300's came available. Maybe on a servicing manual somewhere?
