Samsung NX20 Kit Black 20.3-megapixel Digital Camera with 18-55mm Lens
No Speed Limit. No Boundaries.
Introducing the 20.3 megapixels Samsung Smart Camera NX20 with 1/8000 fast shutter and Built-in WiFi.
20.3MP APS-C Sensor
Customized for the NX System, the brand-new, professional-grade, 20.3MP APS-C CMOS Sensor produces images that rival those of any premium DSLR. Each individual pixel has a large sensor area and receives more light, guaranteeing low noise levels, high dynamic range and accurate color differentiation. The higher sensitivity allows you to shoot during low-light situations without graininess or other noise. The new sensor also provides Full HD video output capabilities.
1/8000 Fast Shutter
Shutter speed can make the difference between capturing an iconic image and missing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The NX20’s 1/8000 shutter speed gives you the flexibility to shoot like the pros-at varying speeds and light exposures. The NX20’s shutter even automatically adjusts itself as it senses environmental factors such as temperature and camera direction. And the electronically controlled focal-plane shutter reduces exposure errors.
A Touch of TouchWiz
The NX20’s High Speed Capture capabilities let you catch fleeting moments and fast-moving objects without requiring a separate sensor module. The NX System features an ultra-high-speed Auto Focus that can rival that of almost any system camera. Its all-new, advanced algorithm delivers faster and more accurate auto focus. The NX20 can shoot at 8 frames per second for better continuous shooting, and shutter lag has been reduced to just 40ms.

Samsung NX20,
I was happy with NX10 as my travel camera bundled with 18-200 lens. Samsung NX20 was a promising choice. EWF is in color and better than the previous black & white EWF. Articulated screen is a plus, however I don’t use it. Addition of WI-FI increased the cost of the camera and not to many people whom I know use this option. I guess it is a questionable option. This camera was designed towards DSLR users, however mostly reporters are required to upload images instantly to the main servers. I have the camera for two weeks now and still didn’t read how to use WI-FI. Quality of the image is definitely better.
What I don’t like is that the AF in the low light conditions didn’t improve at all in comparison with the previous model. For the travel camera it isn’t a big of an issue. However, it would be much better if Samsing would pay attention to it. I have as the second travel camera Canon Elph 300 HS with very fast focus in low light conditions and it costs me only $149. So Samsung could improve this area instead of adding WI-FI.

Best mirrorless camera at this price,
The only camera that has the same sensor size and similar features is SONY NEX-7, so the comparisons are mostly referring to SONY NEX-7. I assume that people reading this have already gotten over the debate of “DLSR vs Mirrorless”
Good:
1. Much better value, $300 less than NEX-7.
2. Body size is perfect, fits comfortably in hands. Some mirrorless camera are too small;
3. The buttons make it a lot easier to operate and switch between scences
4. Operation is fast, definitely at the same performance level as the entry DSLR; I had a Canon T3i didnt notice any slow-down.
5. Display screen is very good, it has an EVF but I never needed to use it even under sun light.
6. Image quality is very good, I dont think there is any real difference between cameras of same sensor size.
Bad:
1. Battery drains a bit faster than I expected, may be because it is a new camera and there were lots of playing around to get familiar with it.
2. Locked up once, had to pull batter out. There is a new firmware, dont know if it fixes it.
3. You can’t show off your new toy to your friends, because they may ask “you paid $1000 for this?”; NEX-7 is a beauty and looks expensive, NX20 looks plain and boring.
Buy the NX20, save $300 and use it on a lens.
