The NX200 plus some lenses are here now.

First impression - quite nice but not as premium as it looks in the ads.

It is also fairly big for a mirrorless camera but maybe I'm too much used to MFT.

Hello Klaus, after you've used the mirror-less for while now (on trips and testing)where your personal preference points to: morror-less MFT or morror-less APS-C? I am thinking about compact alternative to my DSLR.

Difficult to tell at this stage.



As of NOW I would go for a Panasonic EVIL simply because you can also have premium lenses for this system like the X zooms and various primes and specialty lenses. I would not go for Olympus - less so because of the accounting scandal but because their IS system does not convince me at all.

Pentax Q is probably only something for Leica-like quality lovers in an ultra-small box (in the real life it is far more compact than the comparison images on the web can suggest) but technically it is clearly inferior.

As far as Sony is concerned - they have the best sensor for sure and possibly the best bodies. However, as of now they are not competitive with respect to their lenses. Samsung is somewhere in between Sony and Pana from a global perspective. However, I feel that the components are too big (apart from those nice pancakes, of course).

I can't really comment on Nikon at this stage but according to Markus the body is also too big (as is the 18-200) and the sensor is probably already too small for depth-of-field isolation.



If you want to keep your DSLR it makes probably sensor to go for a viewfinder-less approach - with viewfinder things simply get too big again (at least when considering the GH-2 - this may be different with the NEX7). The new GX1 may be sexy then.

If you want to substitute the DSLR a viewfinder EVIL would be the right choice for sure then - thus probably the GH-2 (although I do not like the amount of plastic here).

If you focus is alt lenses you could also consider the nex -5n. I'm curious how the samsung will perform at higher iso. the alt folks are in love with the 5n and sony has one of the best evf. The negative to the nex (compare to the olympus e3p) is that focus is slow and lenses are few. While the olympus has the best contrast focus system unfortunately the sensor is a generation or two behind the panasonics.



Klaus have you used the nex enough to have any rough comments on the camera or sensor performance ?

Only the NEX 5. Not the 5n.

Hello Klaus, Which one will be first published? I guess 20-50 <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Rolleyes' />

I guess I will start with the primes. That will give us a better idea about the peak performance.

The 20-50 is actually on low prio. The 18-55 will surely be first.
