Abstract: Samsung launched the new NX30 flagship model, alongside its first premium ‘S' lens, a 16-50mm f/2-2.8 zoom , at CES 2014 . The Samsung NX30 remains a 20.3MP APS-C camera (also found in the NX300 ) with the familiar mirrorless design. The camera boasts som...
Abstract: Several video enhancements round out the Samsung NX30's list of features. Like most mirrorless CSC models, the camera can record Full HD video (we're confirming exact specifications) with stereo sound. Unlike many other still cameras, it also has a 3.5mm ...
Within the NX system, the NX30 is the best camera you can buy. Unless you're looking for a more rugged, weather sealed camera with advanced controls like the Olympus OM-D E-M1 or the Panasonic Lumix GH4 , the NX30 comes nicely equipped.But, with the NX300...

Picture quality up to 1600 ISO, A very quiet, discreet camera to use, "iFn" button on Samsung's lenses, Touchscreen, Swivel screen, tilt EVF, Easy to use, 1/8000s shutter speed, WiFi and NFC
Can be slow to save photos, Autofocus has trouble holding focus, No standalone battery charger supplied, No headphones socket, AF tends to "pump" in video mode
The NX30 once again proves that Samsung's NX-series APS-C mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras don't have much to envy of market heavyweights. This DLSM is easy to use, comes with a swivel touchscreen, a tilt EVF, and is a very discreet and quiet camer...
High-quality stills and videos, Very good EVF, twisting touchscreen AMOLED screen, Responsive, 9 fps burst mode
Relatively expensive, ISO results not best in class
Like the NX300, we can enthusiastically recommend the NX30 – it's a high-quality CSC that delivers fine results. No question, it's a bit on the expensive side but one mitigating factor is the inclusion of a full copy of Lightroom 5.0 editing software an...
Articulating touchscreen, Great handling, Tilting EVF
Easy to accidentally set focus point, Limited number of lenses, Buttons not customisable
It seems like Samsung has finally made a camera which enthusiasts can aspire to own. It's a great camera to use, and crucially, images are fantastic. The NX system is starting to become a more complete package, with a decent, if limited, range of optics ...
DSLRsized sensor in compact system camera body, adjustable eye level viewfinder and tilting rear panel AMOLED display, wireless connectivity options that are actually usable, intuitive operation, clear and colourful results requiring few tweaks
Nose presses up against backscreen when using eyelevel viewfinder, battery only chargeable incamera
Think that DSLRa are too bulky but like the design and handling? In going head to head with the likes of Panasonic's GH4, Olympus's OM-D, and Fuji's X-T1, this Samsung NX30 is more affordable than its rivals. And if wireless connectivity is important, it'...
What the Samsung NX30 lacks in build quality it makes up for in handling. The placement of the buttons has been refined from its predecessor and made even better. In-hand, the camera feels very well balanced, even with some of the larger lenses in Samsung...
