Remember the Essentials

Sufficient memory is not included.
Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.

The Samsung NX10 is a 14.6 megapixel camera is designed without a mirror box and pentaprism, making it compact and lightweight. It's the perfect size to carry with you everywhere, but it still has powerful features like HD quality video and an AF function for fast action shots. Equipped with an extra large APS-C size CMOS sensor, the NX10 produces rich and natural color and clear images. The image sensor minimizes noise, which degrades image quality. Images are not noisy even at high ISOs, so even in low light your images are sharp, and crisp.

The Samsung NX10 features a 3.0" AMOLED display so your view is incredibly clear even in bright sunlight. With a response rate that's 3000 times faster than an LCD display and a 1000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, you'll see sharp, clear images at any angle with outstanding color reproduction. Unlike an optical viewfinder which only shows images reflected from the mirror with limited information, the NX10's electronic viewfinder displays additional OSD information on its screen. Camera settings are applied to the preview image instantly, so what you see in the electronic viewfinder will be identical to the picture you take.

Strong contrast scenes are not a problem with the Smart Range feature. Bright spots aren't blown-out and dark spots are not blocked-up when shooting with the NX10. It captures and displays a clear image in the same frame, so your view is picture perfect. The camera also features the Beauty Shot System, so you get beautiful portraits with every photo you take.

The camera has many other advanced features including auto and manual exposure control, and it will shoot a raw file for the photographers that want fine control after pushing the button. The camera includes the Samsung 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OIS Lens. This wide-angle to short telephoto lens is perfect for many different scenes, and other Samsung NX mount lenses are available.

    Comments about Samsung NX-10 Digital Camera with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OIS Lens:

    used to take tons of pictures at different activities, the auto focus makes it easy to take a few pictures in a row so you can select the one you like after (you know, someone is always moving around or not looking where they should), the video feature is also easy to use, but the audio is not the best (if you want a video camera, get one, this is not what you want)...
    The picture quality is outstanding, and it's super easy to use...

      Comments about Samsung NX-10 Digital Camera with 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OIS Lens:

      So far I love this camera. It's easy to carry around and has great overall picture quality. I actually like the electronic viewfinder better than an optical viewfinder because it zooms in temporarily when I manual focus. I find I actually get sharper focus (maybe because my eyes aren't that great). I wish Samsung would let you determine how long it zooms in for, because you have to wait about 2-3 seconds to recompose the shot. It's not as slick looking as the Olympus or even the Panasonic interchangeable mirrorless cameras, but it's a bargain considering the viewfinder is already included. Plus it has a bigger sensor.
      I'm waiting for more lenses to come out. Samsung is supposed to release 5 more.
      It is not really geared for action shots, but will do in a pinch.
      My last complaint is that the autofocus is useless in video mode. Olympus and panasonic models AF during video worked way better when I was playing with them at BH. That being said, I've learned to be pretty good with manual focus during video.
