The editors liked
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.
I-Function lenses make controlling settings easy
Gorgeous AMOLED display
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
Snappy AF performance in good light
New iFunction technology
Improved build quality and ergonomics
Good range of digital filters
Expanding range of available lenses
Fun range of creative filters. Decent video recording and full manual control. Excellent AMOLED screen
The editors didn't like
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
No in-body stabilisation
No dedicated video button
$799 (18-55mm lens)
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
Short battery life
Occasional slight inaccuracies with WB and metering
Slower performance in low light and when shooting raw files
No viewfinder option
No viewfinder option or accessory port. No image stabilisation in 20-50mm kit lens. High ISO images are very noisy
High resolution, Good build quality, Functionality built into lens
No built-in flash, No viewfinder, Busy scenes confuse autofocus
For those for whom a large sensor with equally large resolution is high on their wish list, but not the bulk of an actual DSLR, the Samsung NX200 will be very enticing. With an ISO range that reaches an almost see-in-the-dark ISO12800 we also get 3D p
Overall, the NX200 is arguably the most accomplished and grown-up camera Samsung has produced to date. Its price is perfectly in line with the current crop of CSCs, such as the Sony NEX, Olympus PEN, Nikon 1 and Panasonic Lumix MFT alternatives, with...
Not the most comfortable camera to hold, Detachable flash feels a bit flimsy, Image processing while in Continuous drive mode is a bit slow
Overall image quality is some of the best we've yet seen in a CSC and certainly on a par with what the APS-C equipped Sony models can achieve. The NEX200's 20.1MP APS-C sensor is capable of delivering impressive amounts of fine detail – especially at lowe...

We're impressed with the significantly improved AF performance of the Samsung NX200 in comparison to its predecessor. Shot-to-shot times are also noticeably quicker, and there's a discernible reduction in shutter lag too. HD movies and stills shot at ful...
Abstract: The Samsung NX200 is a major step forwards for the Samsung NX line of compact system cameras, with a 20.3-megapixel image sensor that will place it among the heaviest hitters in the category. The Samsung-designed sensor complements a number of smart, intu...

Abstract: The NX200 is the top new camera from Samsung that boasts a huge image sensor and the ability to record Full HD 1080p video. The camera's set of manual controls in video mode are also impressive, although we noticed some problems in our motion, sharpness, ...
Picture quality up to 1600 ISO, High resolution images, Clear, simple interface / iFn button is a nice touch, Good AMOLED screen, Burst mode: 7 fps, Decent enough 1855 mm f/3.55.6 OIS kit lens
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
The Samsung NX200 is a nice update to the NX range. Although it lacks charm, the NX200 is still a good camera. It's easy to use and takes good-quality pictures up to 1600 ISO. The main drawback is the incessant pumping of the autofocus in video mode. ...
Lightweight, Compact, Stylish, Great image and video quality, Interchangeable lenses,
All in all, the Samsung NX200 has been an absolute joy to use and review. I was very impressed with the compact and light-weight design, as well as the high-quality images and video taken on the camera.The NX200 also features a variety of different opt...
