Samsung NX30 edit

The NX30 is similar to its predecessor, the Samsung NX20, but has fast hybrid autofocus which Samsung claims can detect an object in only 80ms.[6]

In addition to this advanced phase-detect/contrast-detect hybrid autofocus system, but it has improved ISO range,[7] better continuous shooting speed (8 vs 9 fps), Full HD videos @ 60fps (NX20 being limited to 30fps only), a higher resolution display and tiltable viewfinder.
