The NX20 has the key features I would be looking for: evf, few more MPx, APSC sensor.Any thoughts/experience with samsungs?

I have one and its a toss up between it and a Fuji xe1 which one I grab first - lovely colours and the details are outstanding

Sounds interesting.
How is the evf? What focusing aids does it have?
Thanks for any information.

My pk adapter arrived from china and allowed me to take the NX20 out for a spin. It was a cheap one and I had to file the locking pin before it would engage properly. But its decently snug. Took along a smc 50mm 1.7 and a smc 28mm 3.5.
First impressions favourable - evf clear and bright, focus definition very good, easy one touch 5x magnification (press the center button on the 4-way controller), didn't need to change any settings, just on with the lens and away.
Like my G1 its rather easy to have your thumb lean on one of the nearby buttons while holding the camera. On the G1 it's usually the WB. On this it's the +/- or AE buttons.



Camera specs here.

A few off the card jpg's, 28mm first two, 50mm next wo. Third is 100% crop. Lots of resolution with these primes, contrast not that bright. Day was slightly cloudy which lent to some flower pics.
