Samsung has made a truly compact camera in the NX Mini
And inside its portable chassis is a wealth of specs you wouldn't expect in such a small shell. There's a oneinch
20.5Megapixel sensor packed in
And there's a new lens mount that Samsung has made j
Amazingly small ILC
Tilting 180-degree LCD
Decent stills and movies with enough light
Lens adapter for using traditional lenses
The editors didn't like
The interchangeable lenses are pointless and undercut the compactness of the camera. There are only two lenses to choose from
And neither offers compelling specs. There are no sharing features which distinguish the camera as being particularly "smarter"
Thin frame makes weight disproportionately balanced
Provides awkward handling
Lowquality plastic
Slow startup
No lens cap
Mono microphone
AF struggles in video mode
MicroSD cards
NXM lenses incompatible with APSC mirrorless interchangeablelens cam
Limited lens range
Smudgy images
No flash
We'd happily swap the selfie feature for a more versatile screen hinge
We miss the iFN lens features
New lens system is risky
No handgrip
No viewfinder
Small sensor
While we like Samsung's NX Mini for its portability
The interchangeable lens system means it's a little less portable if you want to take advantage of its versatility. That means shelling out for more lenses
Abstract: It is 11x6.3x3.3cm and weights 228grams.It is surprising how used you get to letting the camera do the work and not worrying to much about how close you are to the subject. Here with the fixed 9mm lens you need to move around a bit more or rely on the ima...

For £300, Samsung's NX Mini boils down to a brilliant snapper that fits in your pocket, but its versatility in its interchangeable lenses is also a mixed bag. You're likely to stick with the kit lens that it arrives with, as Samsung's lenses are rather co...
Abstract: Samsung has achieved this by introducing a new lens mount. The Samsung NX-M mount is based around a 1in sensor – the same size that's used in Nikon 1 cameras and the Sony RX100 III . That's about a third the surface area of the APS-C sensors used in previ...

I can see how the style and uniqueness of the NX Mini will find it a pretty solid market of young-folk. But I have a hard time recommending it as something to capture high quality photos with.If you want the versatility of interchangeable lenses, you will...
Its always good to see innovation in the camera world, and Samsung is a manufacturer that is currently willing to try new things, constantly adding to its arsenal. This latest addition provides some worthy competition to the other miniature interchangeab...
The Samsung NX Mini is an interesting camera. It fits the niche area of the market of those looking for something ultra small that they can take manual control of and change the lenses. For the moment, that lens range is small, and it'll presumably be do...

It's fair to say we were impressed by the NX Mini. Image performance is particularly good from such a sensor, and although we'd happily sacrifice the selfie feature for a more versatile hinge on the screen, the magnesium body and metal lenses are de...

LCD wipes out in direct sunshine, Noisy at higher ISOs, Controls may be too small for big fingers, Mono mic
When we first previewed pre-production samples of the NX Mini, we were blown away by the concept and the size, and thought Samsung could be onto something. The one thing we couldn't test at the time was image quality. Now that we've had one to play with...
