Used mostly for astrophotography. No mirror flop. Very lightweight, no need to rebalance telescope. Only bad thing, unable to shut off display when image is processing. Messes up your dark eye adaption.

The NX100 is a great compact camera from samsung,I got his cousin the NX10. The only problem with nx100 is the view finder, but it won't be a problem if you're shooting in a not so bright area. The function controls are way easier than sony NEX 3,5, you will save at least 10 steps in changing the settings compare to sony nex camera. This camera will be best at indoor, outside in the house, soccer game. Also it has 30fps (30 pics in one second) burst mode good for fast action.

The NX100 is set to dominate the new mirrorless camera category. The innovative new product has benefited from Samsung's expertise across multiple technology areas, meaning that the camera's key components are 100% produced internally. This unique process has been combined with Samsung's detailed and extensive program of consumer research, which provided valuable insights that the company's designers and engineers have incorporated into the NX100. Finally the unparalleled product is complemented by an extensive line up of lenses and accessories, which give photographers the full package to explore their creativity. The launch of the NX100 follows the success of the NX10, Samsung's first mirrorless camera and the first in the world to feature an APS-C size sensor, which has already changed the way millions of photographers across the globe take pictures, and raised the bar for the industry as a whole. The NX100 shares the industry leading technology of NX10, such as an APS-C size sensor for quality images and a 3 inchAMOLED screen for easy and clear viewing. However, with the NX100 Samsung takes the mirrorless camera to the nextlevel, by incorporating the innovations of the NX10 and improving other areas of the camera's performance and design. The body of the camera is slim, sleek, and stylish, and the NX100 also features the intuitive i-Function lens which allows users to control their camera through the lens for the first time. The NX100 also boasts one of the fastest AF on the market today, which ensures that users never miss a moment, and an ISO that is raised to a maximum of 6400 for action shots.
The design of the NX100 is inspired by the simple shape of dew forming on a leaf, which can be seen on the camera's shutter button and curved body, which comes in four different colors; black, white, brown, and silver. The lightweight, compact and modern design makes the camera extremely portable, allowing users with a creative flair to carry the NX100 with them anywhere and for any occasion. The NX100 is more than just a camera; it is both a creative tool and an artistic object that makes a bold style statement everywhere it goes.
The NX100 also has a lens priority mode which makes switching between lenses to guarantee the perfect shot easier than ever. Firstly, each lens is clearly marked with icons that illustrate their main usages, so beginners can quickly understand which lens they need to select for any given scene. The lens priority mode provides scene options optimized for the lens being used for example when a landscape lens is attached the camera will immediately display the landscape mode. Also, when users change to a specialized lens, the camera would recognize the lens type and automatically configure the settings that would best match with the attached lens. This latter feature would work with specialized Samsung lenses in the future.
The NX100's innovations aren't confined to the lens the camera also provides a very creative feature called "Smart Filter". In playback mode, users can apply seven different effects to the picture, such as the vignette, soft focus, fish-eye, or miniature effects. The "Smart Filter" provides not just high quality images, but also features that are fun to use
The fun doesn't stop with the still image options - the NX100 supports HD movie recording at 720P, so that memories can stay alive in its finest details. The NX100 also contains a "Sound Picture" mode, which can record audio when a photo is taken enriching the experience. To ensure each image is perfect quality, even when lenses are being regularly changed, the NX100 also features a supersonic dust reduction feature to remove any foreign particles from the lens before shooting.
