Samsung's NX200 is no prettier than the year-old NX100Samsung has announced an update to its NX100 mirrorless camera. The NX200 improves on the original in almost every way, whilst managing to maintain the boxy, utilitarian looks of its predecessor.
First, the numbers: The APS-C sensor jumps from 14.6MP to 20.3MP, the camera now shoots at 7fps in RAW mode compared to 3fps, the maximum ISO is now 12,800 not 6,400, and video is captured at 1080p, up from last year’s 720p. You can also now shoot video in manual and shutter-priority exposure modes. Finally, the body is now magnesium instead of plastic.
Other than that, not much has changed. If you already have the NX100, and don’t feel the need to fill up your memory cards quicker with the bigger image and video files, then don’t upgrade. And if you don’t already own a Samsung NX and the accompanying lenses, there seems little to recommend this over the Sony NEX range or Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras.
Samsung hasn’t yet announced price or availability.
