Hi there – can you let me know if this camera displays image in viewfinder and lcd at the same time? My NX3 and NX70 is either one or the other – very frustrating… cheers.
HDW : I will find out
Hi Jared, it`s either or, not both,
but external [eg cineroid] all info displayed, as lcd on camera…

The FDR-Ax1 is also either LCD or viewfinder. Both the FDR-Ax1 and PXW-Z100 are missing quite a few features that are on the NX5U. Some may appear in the firmware update promised for the summer. Things I find missing on my FDR-AX1 from my NX5U are smooth gain switching, data code ( though the button is there but doesn’t work yet ), spotlight setting ( something I thought would be there on a consumer camera ) only one set of picture profiles, battery icons instead of time left etc.
