Samsung NX100 Digital Camera

Even casual observers of the market for digital cameras for the flooding, the compact camera system (CCS or without mirror) models, the shops began to be surprised in the past year. CSC is one of the youngest, the 14.6 megapixel Samsung NX100 body, a beautiful slim model that uses a sensor APS-C CMOS. While the image sensor is the size of the imaging chip in most of the body of the digital SLR, the NX100 is significantly smaller than the other two entries in the category Samsung SCC: The DSLR-like NX10 and NX5 compared to last year.

The design of the Samsung NX100, which comes with a small 20-50mm (03/05 to 05/06) objective, it seems rather small compact cameras like the Olympus PEN-series models and the Panasonic Lumix GF1 and GF2, using the Small Micro Four Thirds sensors. Interestingly, the smallest DSLR on the market right now is Sony Small NEX-5, as the NX100 uses an APS-C.

But while the SCC is in the general category, the Samsung NX100 is clearly his camera itself. For one, even if vaguely resembles rangefinder style models like the Panasonic and Olympus GF, her body curved polycarbonate has a different appearance from that of its competitors. Perhaps less elegant retro, yet classic (and classy) in its own right.

Of course, there's a lot more for a digital camera body. As already mentioned, the Samsung NX100 is a 14.6 MP CMOS sensor, like his brother, the NX10 and NX5 is based. It also retains the 3-inch VGA AMOLED on the back as the NX10. To reduce its size, the NX100 has built-in electronic viewfinder of the NX10 and NX5. Instead, you need a shoe mounted optional electronic viewfinder, the companions of a door that can be directly under the shoe - a new Panasonic Lumix GH1 pioneer and then copied to the Olympus E-P2 and later models, so the last Samsung to join the party.

Also interesting is the i-function on the NX100 is 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 ED lens kit that allows you to quickly change important parameters such as white balance, ISO, and exposure to the pressure of a button on the lens can. The camera offers a range of shooting modes including Smart Auto, priority objective, program, aperture priority, shutter priority, manual, scene, and video clips with its acquisition H.264 up to 720p (1280 x 720 pixels). It is down, the camera has no flash, it can be an optional external flash mounted on the sled.

Scene modes include Beauty Shot, Child, Close Up, Text, Sunset, Dawn, Backlight, Fireworks, Beach & Snow, Night Portrait, Landscape, Sport, and sound. Priority mode automatically selects the settings of the target and scene modes the camera lens to the base type attached - for example, could be called a telephoto lens, a higher ISO sensitivity and shutter speed to avoid blur of the camera.

The data will be stored on Secure Digital, SDHC, including the types, supported with a maximum capacity of 32 GB. The battery lasts for 420 shots or 210 minutes of play testing standards rated Samsung. During recording, the battery life is estimated at 130 minutes. Body dimensions are 120.5 x 71 x 34.5 mm and weighs 282g, body only Samsung NX100.

The Samsung NX100 has a retail price of about U.S. $ 499.99, which includes the lens kit 20-50mm.
