Samsung has launched its new camera, NX500, combining design and technology for everyday use, but also packed with features for professional photographers. Featuring high resolution 28MP BSI APS-C sensors, 4K and UHD video recording, a DRIMeV image processor, NX AF system III, and Samsung Auto Shot, the NX500 has the core functionality of the NX1 engineered into a portable size.

The built-in HEVC Codec brings efficiency to the storage of video clips by compressing high quality video to half the size and the bit rate of H.264 footage. Additionally, still images captured from Interval Capture mode can be converted into a UHD Time-lapse video directly on the camera, without the need to transfer images to a PC.

Additionally, 9FPS continuous shooting means NX500 users can monitor and capture ongoing action shots. Further enhancing the NX500?s action capture capability, the Samsung Auto Shot (SAS) feature uses motion detection to predict when to capture the perfect shot in difficult scenarios, such as when a child fields a baseball.

With a Tilt and Flip up function, as well as bright vision through the display, users can take the perfect selfie. Also, the NX500 provides wireless set-up with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and NFC.

The Samsung NX500 will come in three colors: Black, White, and Brown, and will be available globally starting in March 2015.
