Samsung NX1 Review – The glory of technology

Pros

• Stunning 4K video quality at ISO 200-800
• Super 35mm / APS-C size sensor
• Usable ISO 1600 despite crowded 28MP sensor
• 3200 usable for raw stills
• Superb build quality
• Very nice to handle, excellent ergonomics
• Unfussy controls and sensible menus / screen layout
• Very high quality AMOLED LCD and EVF
• Superbly implemented peaking, responsive and detailed
• Clean 4K HDMI output for uncompressed quality is 4096 x 2160 (Atomos Shogun)
• DCI 4K and Ultra HD like the GH4
• Good colour out of the box on default picture profile setting
• H.265 saves space on card and when master files are archived
• Super 35mm sensor size (APS-C) perfect match to cinema lenses (and the look)
• Superb stills, very high resolution (see here vs D750 and A7S)
• Good dynamic range in both 4K video and stills
• 1080/120fps slow-mo quality is improvement over GH4’s 96fps
• Very advanced AF tracking system
• Lightning fast AF for stills in good light with certain NX lenses
• Extremely fast 15fps continuous shooting rates at 28MP
• Large battery capacity
• Attractive styling, fits well with Sigma ART lenses
• Mount can take Canon and Nikon lenses (though aperture control can be fiddly)
• PAL / NTSC switchable – 4K at 30,25,24p as well as 1080/60/50p
• Very responsive and quick to start and shut down
• Useful top LCD panel
• Well placed video record button
• Manual ISO adjustment can be applied to rear jog wheel for quick exposure changes
• Exposure changes are smooth fading rather than stepped, during recording
• Headphone & mic sockets along with audio meters & mic level control
• OIS generally works well on Samsung 16-50mm power zoom and 16-50mm F2.0-2.8

Cons

• 4K H.265 codec does not maintain a fine noise grain
• H.265 takes time-consuming transcoding step to ProRes, as cannot (yet) be edited natively
• Rather a lot of blocking in low contrast areas and shadows
• ISO 1600 is really the maximum for video (it’s no A7S)
• NX lens mount won’t accomodate a Metabones Speed Booster for full frame look
• Limited customisability of function buttons
• No LOG picture profile for maximum dynamic range and grading flexibility
• Optical distortion in centre of EVF can be distracting
• EVF smaller optically than Fuji X-T1 (but very high resolution)
• No adapter for electronic aperture control of Canon EF lenses yet
• Rolling shutter in 4K still can be an issue (but it’s too bad given the 28MP full pixel readout!!)

έχουμε και λέμε...
τρελή τεχνολογία, τρελά χρώματα ΧΩΡΙΣ ανάγκη color grading, τρελή ανάλυση 4κ εσωτερικα,
επίσης, ισως τα καλύτερα 120fps σε 1080p.
Aλλά...
η κωδικοποίηση είναι h-265 που σου βγάζει την ψυχή.

Έλα όμως που στο επερχόμενο (όποτε...) 4Κ το H-265 θα είναι πλέον το στάνταρ...

Ναι αλλα τωρα πρεπει να το μετατρέψεις σε prores. Ειναι μια χρονοβόρα διαδικασία ευτυχώς χωρις ουσιαστικές απώλειες στην ποιότητα. Το proress μπορείς να το επεξεργαστεις παντού, το η265 ειναι υπερβολικά βαρύ για editing η color grading.
