The Samsung NX100 makes a compelling option for photographers looking to travel with all the benefits of their DSLR camera (image quality, control, and lens options) minus the weight and burden of a much larger camera system. In most regards the NX100 ...
Building on the success of the NX10, Samsung has taken their EVIL series of NX cameras to the next level with the NX100. Sporting an almost identical internal makeup compared to it's big brother, Samsung has taken all of these awesome features and stuf...
If I thought at the conclusion of my Samsung NX10 review that it was a hit and a miss, and was not a complete package just yet, how could I like the NX100 more? There wouldn’t be any logic in that.I feel the Samsung NX100 is like the Samsung NX10 bu...
Abstract: The Samsung NX100’s new body design drastically revises the 'DSLR look-alike' concept found in other compact interchangeable lens cameras, and is a bold step from the company’s previous NX10/11 designs. This brings it into direct competition with othe...

We found ourselves saying “does not” a lot while writing this review. The NX100 does not include a flash, the NX100 does not include a viewfinder to bolster the weak daylight performance of the AMOLED screen. The NX100 does not have a grip, so you nev...

Abstract: I know it’s not that important, but I feel this category of camera needs a name. How about MILC? Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera.Along with models from Olympus, Panasonic and Sony these radical MILCs have attracted many followers, willing to fo...
Very good photo taking abilities, Beautiful AMOLED screen, SMART Auto really is smart!, Interchangeable lens, Quick and easy to use, Compact design, RAW mode, Decent "kit" lens included, Comfortable grip with an easy to use button layout
Lenses are still "slow" for DSLR (e.g. f2.8 20mm should be at worst 1.8), With bigger lens attached you will lose a lot of the compact nature of the camera, Short warranty, No burst mode when using SMART mode, Short battery life for a DSLR camera, No built in flash, No SD card included, Can't use SDXC, DIGITAL not optical image stabilization...
There really is a lot to love about this camera. It really does combine the power of a DSLR in a package that is only the size of a point and shoot "super zoom" camera. Best of all, its as easy to USE as any point and shoot camera and is easily the mos...
Affordable, stylish, good layout and UI, iFn lenses
No inbuilt flash, no viewfinder, poor battery life
The NX100 certainly looks the part and it works a treat for what it provides too. It's the lacking of a flash and viewfinder that will limit its prospective audience however and, although these can be purchased as accessories, this won't be to everyone...
