Samsung might have received a lot
of negative reviews recently on their design aspect in the smartphone field,
but their newbie on the smart camera segment has a top notch aesthetic appeal.
Samsung NX mini, a 21MP shooter is one of the slimmest camera with
interchangeable lens. Built with plastic body which has a look of leather
(similar to Samsung Galaxy Grand 2) and brass aluminium, the device looks a
piece of class. But the killer feature is it’s 22.5mm thin design. The NX mini
not only looks amazing but the camera part of it also might be of great
interest for the new aspiring photographers.
The NX mini comes with either a
9-27mm f3.5-5.6 ED OIS zoom lens or 9mm f3.5 Prime lens (depending on the kit
you pay for). The image quality with auto settings is as good as Nikon D5100 or
rather better on most of the environment. It produces sharp colours with great
details. Professional photographers can manipulate with the manual mode to get
the best out of their snaps. It performs really well under low light conditions
even without flash. It has a 3inch capacitive touch screen that can flip almost
180degree to help
take a wide angle self shot, you just need to blink your eyes and it will capture a selfie in 3seconds. The touchscreen makes it really simple to operate the camera though the sunlight visibility is not that great. Also there are some smart modes just like the Galaxy camera which comes in really handy. The video recording capability of this device is also really good. It can record a video upto 1080pixel at frame rate of 30fps. It’s anti shake feature also a great aspect in terms of video recording. Although lack of 4k video recording capability is a disappointment. It has all the characteristics of an entry level DSLR and with a weight of 158grams, it is the most portable DSLR that all budding photographers might want to carry.
