BELOW With 15fps and wide area autofocusing, the NX1 is more than capable of keeping up with fast-moving action.

n 4K video capture With both UHD and 4K video formats available, the NX1 delivers footage 4x higher than Full HD. This increase in quality would normally mean an increase in file size, but that has been avoided thanks to the use of the new H.265 Codec. In reality, this means that NX1 owners will be able to record for twice as long and use up the same amount of memory thanks to faster downsizing of data. The more serious movie shooters among you will also appreciate the inclusion of an HDMI 1.4 port that supports professional codecs recording in uncompressed 4:2:2, 8-bit 4K video. n Faster shoot and share The NX1 is well equipped with the latest wireless connectivity options. It’s the first compact system camera to offer Bluetooth connectivity for faster

pairing and quicker transfer times, plus it has Near Field Communication (NFC), which allows the camera to connect with a suitably-equipped smart device simply by touching the two together. The Wi- Fi connection itself is also faster using the 802.11c standard that’s 4x quicker than the commonly used 802.11n standard. n High-quality construction Constructed from magnesium alloy, the NX1’s body also features rubber seals to keep it protected from dust and moisture. This same level of protection against the elements is also available on the 16- 50mmS and new 50-150mm Premium series lenses so you really can keep shooting whatever the weather conditions. The general look and feel of the camera is likely to appeal to current digital SLR users as there is

some very familiar territory. Two top-plate dials, for example, provide access to a wide range of regularly used functions, plus there’s also a top-plate LCD (a first on a compact system camera) that keeps users abreast of vital picture-taking information including camera features, exposure data and battery status. Round the back of the camera, a super AMOLED display with touchscreen provides access to myriad functions, all of which are shown in 1037k dot detail. The screen can be angled up by 90° and down by 45° for high- and low-level image capture. It’s the first CSC to offer Bluetooth connectivity for faster pairing and quicker transfer times
