Expert review by : Mike Topham (trustedreviews.com)
Samsung's top of the range compact system camera is a real contender
Settings adjust on lens ring ; Responsive & hinged touchscreen ; New faster auto focus system ; Very good image quality
Lacking built-in flash ; Poor buffer performance
The ample touchscreen on the rear of the camera offers access to a majority of the camera's controls, as do a selection of buttons located around the camera body, although for the majority of our setting changes during testing we found ourselves using...

The Samsung NX300 is the brand's new flagship NX Series camera
Excellent feature set ; Large detail rich sensor ; Tilting touch screen operation
No built-in viewfinder ; No integral flash
Expert review by : Nik Rawlinson (pocket-lint.com)
It's got the same sized sensor, the same resolution, and bears more than a passing similarity to its predecessors. So what's so great about the NX300? The NX line-up was already strong, and the NX300 solidifies its position as one of the best compact...
iFunction control system, low light performance, APS-C sensor, large and bright articulated screen, resolution; plenty of hand-holding for beginners that doesn't get in the way of more experienced users, bundled Lightroom software
Some barrel distortion in more clinical tests, no bundled external charger
The NX line-up was already strong, and the NX300 solidifies its position as one of the best compact system camera options currently on sale.

The Samsung NX300 represents a fairly modest upgrade compared to its NX210 predecessor. Pocket-lint got our hands on the latest compact system camera at
Expert review by : Becca Martin (techadvisor.co.uk)
Our only quibble is that there's the tiniest amount of softness – not a great deal, just enough that images aren't absolutely sharp and may need tweaking in post-production. However, noise levels are almost undetectable up to reasonably high ISOs.
The NX300 is a great CSC, with decent image quality for both stills and video and good build quality. It's easy to use, too. However, the price tag is a little steeper than similar cameras.
Expert review by : Nik Rawlinson (cnet.co.uk)
There's a new top dog in Samsung's camera line-up. The NX300 boasts a new sensor, articulated screen and faster responses, yet at the same time there's a very comforting familiarity about it -- in more ways than one.
Large touch-sensitive AMOLED screen; Lens Priority mode; Image quality; Ease of use; Bundled copy of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom.
Some barrel distortion on raw shots; Slightly bulky when compared to other compact system cameras.
With a large touchscreen, built-in Wi-Fi and an APS-C sized sensor there's a lot to like about the Samsung NX300. It consistently produces high-quality shots, is easy to use -- even if you're a novice -- and ships with a copy of Adobe Photoshop...

The competition was simple; upload images each month fitting to the theme. The first was leading lines, followed by marvellous macro and bringing up the rear was low-light. The idea was each entrant would have created a portfolio of three images and...
Expert review by : Amateur Photographer (amateurphotographer.co.uk)
On the whole, the improvements to the NX300 are incremental rather than radical. However, as the NX210 was already a very good camera, the same can be said of the NX300. The new model is more stylish when viewed from the front and top. Handling is...
