Samsung NX100 review
The Samsung NX100 is an innovative camera, but not always a practical one. The compact interchangeable lens camera has a handsome and slim body, but you should hang on to it carefully because it doesn’t include a textured grip. Inside is a large APS-C image sensor that captures 14.6-megapixels of resolution. This means that you get the same sized sensor as in many standard DSLRs, but in a smaller overall package. Samsung designed a clever iFunction control system that lets you adjust some of the most common camera settings from controls on the lens itself. Yet, neither the 20-50mm kit zoom, nor the body, includes image stabilisation. There’s a smart system for automatic exposure selection, but no built-in flash.When thinking about a NX100 as the next possible camera for you, the real question is, does innovation outweigh its shortcomings?

Riding on the success of NX10, Samsung’s first mirrorless camera, NX100 also comes with a mirrorless APS-C size sensor and a three-inch AMOLED screen, plus new features such as i-Function Lens.
Mirrorless cameras were one of the digital camera trends in 2010, and they are expected to grow this year as more companies jump on the bandwagon.
What makes them special is that even though you can still play with interchangeable lenses, the same as you do with a DLSR, mirrorless cameras are much smaller and lighter.
There’s no need to explain the technicalities behind the reduction in size and weight, but do take note that mirrorless cameras don’t come with a viewfinder — this means the main source for viewing your photograph subjects is through the rear LCD or AMOLED screen.

samsung NX100 Review
The evolution continues with the next NX: Samsung NX100
The NX100 is the second generation of compact system camera (CSC) developed by Samsung this year. Following in the footsteps
of the NX10 the new model takes on a more slimline look, akin to Panasonic’s GF1 or Sony’s NEX cameras.
Beneath the streamlined exterior, the NX100 still packs a punch with a 14.6MP APS-C sensor that stands it apart from the micro four thirds offerings from Olympus and Panasonic. This larger sensor, in theory, should produce image results similar to a DSLR, many of which also offer APS-C sensors.
Although we tend to focus mainly on camera bodies when we review, the big feature here is iFunction. Although this is accessed via a button situated on the lens, the iFunction feature changes the way you shoot. Depress the button and shooting options appear along the bottom of the three-inch AMOLED screen. Scroll through these by pressing the button until you reach the feature you want to manipulate. Choose from aperture, shutter speed, white balance, ISO, exposure compensation and scene modes. Then simply twist the focus ring on the lens to scroll up through aperture values or apply EV, for example.
The benefit of this system is that everything is available at your fingertips, without having to change your shooting stance. With the right hand on the Shutter button and the left cupped around the lens, changes can be made quickly, without having to look away and then recompose the original scene. We even tried this lens on the older Samsung NX10. After we applied the firmware update, we found the iFn lens and the viewfinder made for a great combination.

Samsung NX100 Review(Conclusion)
Conclusion
The Samsung NX100 is a natural evolution of the expanding NX-series, providing a more compact and lighter overall package than the existing NX10 model which competes more clearly with the Panasonic GF, Olympus EP and Sony NEX cameras. The NX100 isn't quite as small or as well-realised as we'd have liked, but it's currently by far the cheapest way to buy into the Compact System Camera revolution.
The reduction in the size of the NX100 has come at the cost of the loss of a built-in electronic viewfinder and, more crucially for its target market of compact camera upgraders, a built-in flash. While most of the NX100's potential owners won't mind the lack of an EVF, they will miss the versatility of a pop-up flash, something that several key rivals offer. Sure, you can fit an optional flash unit to the NX100 via the Smart Shoe, but its more inconvenient and also prevents additional use of either the EVF or the intriguing GPS unit at the same time. On a more practical level we also missed having a proper grip, especially given the NX100's smooth surface, although in most other respects the user interface is commendably well-thought-out for such a new product.
The jury's out on the new i-Function button, though, with opinions divided about whether it's a genuinely useful innovation or just another way to differentiate the NX system from its competitors. Being able to change the camera's key settings via the focus ring makes sense when holding it up to eye-level, but just seems plain awkward when it's held at arm's length, something that most of this model's target audience will do by default. We think i-Function is a better fit for the NX10 with its built-in EVF, which has recently been made compatible with the two new i-Fn lenses through a firmware upgrade.
On the subject of lenses, the new 20-50mm kit lens that we reviewed the NX100 with is a lot smaller than the existing 18-55mm lens that ships with the NX10, with a couple of important caveats. Firstly its retractable design means that the startup of the camera is slowed down as you have to unlock the lens, and secondly this lens isn't stabilised, an important oversight as the NX system doesn't offer in-body stabilisation. Samsung have boosted the ISO speed up to 6400 on the NX100, but the results aren't pretty and don't make up for the lack of OIS in the lens.
As the NX100 shares exactly the same sensor as the NX10, it also offers all the advantages that a large APS-C DSLR sensor offers, namely better performance at higher ISOs than the smaller Micro Four Thirds format. I'd be happy to regularly shoot with any setting from 100-800, and even 1600 is handy at a push. The fastest settings of 3200 and 6400 are less useful though and not quite on a par with the high ISO results from the Sony NEX series. The movie mode is also not quite as sophisticated as some rivals, with no stereo sound or option to connect a microphone, no one-touch record button and no ability to change the shutter speed or take a still image during recording.
One factor that the Samsung NX100 certainly does have in its favour is price. The official RRP of £449.99 / $599.99 with the new 20-50mm kit lens is competitive enough, but we've already seen prices below £400 / $500 from reputable dealers, giving incredible value for money and the cheapest entry into the CSC market for a new product. The Samsung NX100 undercuts its main rivals by a considerable margin and also further blurs the boundaries between high-end compact cameras and Compact System Cameras. Despite our slight misgivings about the NX100's size, lack of built-in flash and the new kit lens, it's still a very good camera with a high-quality APS-C sensor and Samsung's massive financial backing behind it, making it an easy recommendation if you want to test out the Compact System Camera waters without having to invest too much money.
