The Samsung NX500 is a mirrorless camera that somehow manages to pack a whole bunch of top-notch features into a pretty compact device. Camera geeks will find this offering familiar, and that's because it borrows plenty from the NX1 camera. It is equipped with a 28-megapixel APS-C backside-illuminated CMOS sensor, 4K video recording capability and rapid autofocus.
This camera has the power to capture high-quality still images and video footage in a wide variety of lighting conditions. It can also take burst images at a decent speed of 9 frames per second.
The Samsung NX500 will come packaged with a 16-50-mm lens and will sell for $800.
This camera is a clear statement of intent from Samsung that it is looking to dominate all sectors of the camera market, not just the ultra-high-end area.
