Following hot on the heels of the DSLR-like NX10 comes the release of the more compact NX100, which is smaller, lighter, less complicated and cheaper than its big brother. Samsung may not have been first to market in the increasingly popular Compact System Camera category, but they're certainly making a big effort to capture as much share as possible. The Samsung NX100 is available in black, white and brown and costs around £449.99 / $599.99 with the new 20-50mm kit lens. The NX100 also has a fast contrast auto-focus system, wide range of manual controls, a Smart Auto function which automatically selects the best shooting mode, and a Smart Range feature that captures detail in both the bright and dark areas of the picture.
Just like the NX10, the NX100 has the same 14.6 megapixel APS-C sized CMOS sensor, 720p movie mode, dust reduction system and fixed 3-inch AMOLED screen. The NX100 also has a special i-Scene lens priority mode, which automatically selects scene options that are optimized for the lens currently being used. The i-Function button on the new 20-50mm and 20mm pancake kit lenses allows users to control the NX100 by scrolling through manual settings (shutter speed, aperture, EV, WB, and ISO) and using the focus ring to change the parameters for each setting. In addition to a lighter and more compact body and a boost in ISO speed to 6400, the biggest innovation is the NX100's lens. The Samsung NX100 is the second new mirrorless compact system camera this year from Samsung, following the more DSLR-like NX10 model.
