Quick Access Menus

The quick access menus are accessible by pressing the four buttons inside of the silver wheel on the back of the camera. From these menus you can quickly adjust ISO, drive mode, auto focus settings, and white balance. These menus are very handy and you can make all of the adjustments you need in just a few seconds.
Fn Menu

Above and to the right of the quick access menu buttons is the Fn menu. This menu is just another access point to change your photo size and quality, metering, and smart range. Though I tended to not use this menu very much, it is nice to have the option to should someone else find it more convenient.
Playback Options

By pressing the play button to the bottom left of the quick access menu buttons you enter the playback mode. Here you can view pictures that you have taken and even do a little post-processing. We will get into some of the effects you can choose from later on.
Would like to have seen this compared more to the Canon G12 or G1 X. This is informative to see how it compares to an older DSLR, but the D80 has been discontinued since 2008. You’re also comparing a 10.2MP DSLR, to a 14.6MP point and shoot. The overall look at the camera is good, however the comparison seems a bit useless
The focus was not really on NX100 vs D80 but more on mirrorless vs DSLR. Because this camera is aimed at someone looking to upgrade from a standard point and shoot they can get an idea of how this less-expensive option stacks up to the full DSLR. Besides, the D80 can still take excellent pictures.
As far as 10.2 vs 14.6MP, we are talking massive vs more massive. The only benefit is that you can crop the NX100 further while maintaining clarity. Once you resize down to a usable level the MP difference is negligible.
I would have loved to compare to a more modern DSLR, high-end point and shoot, or another mirrorless but resources are limited.
