  • The Samsung NX200 feels like a delightful blend of mirrorless camera and digital compact camera in one. The ability to switch between manual and auto focussing and the zoom controls make the Samsung NX200 feel like the right blend between feeling like a pro- camera and something you’d spend more cash on. A handy dial up top lets you cycle through an array of options and modes from aperture priori

The editors didn't like

  • Bettered by rival cameras in low light
  • Limited choice of lenses
  • Poor battery life
  • Absurdly slow RAW processing times
  • Issues with low light focusing
  • Colour noise in shots above ISO 1600
  • No builtin flash
  • Autofocus 'pumps' in video mode
  • RAW shots (50 MB) slow to save
  • Can't hook up an external viewfinder
  • Fixed screen (no swivel or tilt) with no touchsensitive controls
  • Short battery life
  • Occasional slight inaccuracies with WB and metering
  • Slower performance in low light and when shooting raw files
  • No viewfinder option
  • No built-in flash
  • No viewfinder
  • Busy scenes confuse autofocus
  • Ergonomically the Samsung NX200 isn’t the most comfortable of cameras to spend the day with. After a good fifteen minutes the hand grips will leave the sides of your fingers feeling rather sore. It’s not one to hold for long periods. Either sling it around your neck or carry it in a bag.
  • A touch expensive
  • Not the most comfortable camera to hold
  • Detachable flash feels a bit flimsy
  • Image processing while in Continuous drive mode is a bit slow

  • i-Function lenses make controlling settings easy; gorgeous AMOLED display
  • No in-body stabilisation; no dedicated video button, $799 (18-55mm lens)
  • Impressive from a technical standpoint and image quality is fantastic. But the limited selection of i-Function lenses hold it back.Related Tags: camera, compact, macworld, macworld australia, NX-200, photo, photography, review, samsung Be Sociable, Sh...

  • With excellent photos for a sub-$1,000 model and a nicely designed user interface, the Samsung NX200 is a compelling option for image-first photographers
  • For its price, the NX200 feels light on important features; it lacks an option for a viewfinder, and it cries out for an articulated LCD. And while its shooting performance is fine, in-camera operations like playback and changing settings can get held up
  • The Samsung NX200's photo quality stands out from the crowd, but its performance and features -- while good -- don't merit its relatively high price....

  • Fun range of creative filters. Decent video recording and full manual control. Excellent AMOLED screen
  • No viewfinder option or accessory port. No image stabilisation in 20-50mm kit lens. High ISO images are very noisy
  • The NX200 is an interchangeable lens compact that ticks plenty of boxes, but loses points on performance and a lack of options....

  • The strong metal body. Jpegs from the camera lack zap — something fixed with the custom style setting. RAW capture produces noticeably better pictures than jpeg. It is worth the effort.
  • The time taken to process images is intolerably long and results in locking up certain functions. It is frustrating to see the word “Processing” on the screen and not be able to make control adjustments. Aggressive noise reduction at low ISO can't be turn
  • This is a well made, good looking camera that is small and light enough to suit anyone put off a DSLR by its bulk and weight. It produces decent images and it is designed for customers who are beyond point-and-shoot. It faces stiff competition from the Pa...

  • Short battery life, Occasional slight inaccuracies with WB and metering, Slower performance in low light and when shooting raw files, No viewfinder option
  • Available in two different kit lens combinations - either with a 20-50mm or 18.55mm zoom lens - the price at the time of the Samsung NX200's launch seems reasonable, at £699 in the UK, and $899 in the US. While by no means cheap, the cost is on a par with...

  • Abstract:  Samsung 's previous NX series models have been chunkier and heavier than models from the likes of Sony and Panasonic , but the new NX200 changes that – at least a little bit.While its still a touch heftier than its competitors the Panasonic GX1 and Sony N...

  • New image sensor performs better at high ISOs than its NX100 predecessor; fun in-camera filters; pleasing color rendition in stills and videos.
  • Camera body less than ergonomic; i-Function feature tedious to use without inbuilt viewfinder.
  • We think the NX200 is a capable interchangeable lens camera for the compact upgrader. It is packed with useful features, a large image sensor and a good range of lenses. ...

  • Abstract:  Great body, kinda sharp though Design-wise, the NX200 manages to captivate with its smooth curves and well-placed grip design. The body is actually slightly lighter than the bundled 18-55mm OIS lens, which also helps when taking photos as the weight is ni...

  • For low light situations, the NX200 is capable of going up to a very impressive ISO 12800. The shots taken at that sensitivity were very noisy, but we weren't expecting to get good shots anyway. A step lower, at ISO 6400, turned up dramatically better - a...

  • Los 20.3 megapixeles que tiene de resolución. Los efectos especiales hacen que las fotos sean más divertidas. Toma fotografías en 3D que puedes ver después en una televisión compatible. Tiene una salida HDMI
  • Necesitas comprar los accesorios para tener un equipo completo: flash, modulo GPS y más lentes. La calidad no es tan buena para ser de 20.3 megapixeles. En ISO 12,800 se ve mucho ruido digital en la imagen
  • Si estás cansado de tener una cámara digital compacta que no tenga mucha calidad y sus funciones sean pobres, esta Samsung es la opción ideal para dar el brinco a algo más avanzado y de mejor desempeño. Cuenta con funciones manuales para los que tengan...
