Samsung's NX500 is the first of what will be many affordable, sub-$1,000, mirrorless cameras that shoot 4K video. Up until this year, the only compact mirrorless cameras that could shoot 4K video were the Panasonic GH4, Sony A7s and Samsung NX1 — cameras that all cost well over $1,000.

The camera shares much of the NX1's DNA. They both have 28.2-megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS image sensors, DRIMeVs image processors, 3-inch Super AMOLED touchscreens, built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and, of course, 4K video recording. Read more...
