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 ...
Abstract: Cameras are a tough thing to buy – there are a couple of big brands, then a stack of others in the market making great looking products which on a specifications comparison make the choice very difficult. EFTM has spent a month with the flagship Samsung d...
Abstract: This review of Samsung's NX30 has been some time in the making. It would have been written a lot quicker had I not been so conflicted about this camera.See, I have a love/hate relationship with it.Let's start with what I love. It's not a Micro Four Thirds...
Good overall performance and image quality, EVF can angle upwards, Plenty of features to play with, including Wi-Fi
No dedicated button to switch off the screen, Doesn't come with a charger, Not weather sealed
Samsung is onto a good thing with the NX30 interchangeable lens camera, but we shouldn't be surprised: NX cameras have been good since the release of the NX10. The NX30 can capture clear and vibrant images, and it has lots of features that allow it to be...
If you're looking for a new camera, and having a mid-range, compromising camera able to capture detailed and high quality images while remaining light and portable sounds good, the Samsung NX30 is worth your attention. It is a long way from perfect, with...
Articulating touchscreen, Great handling, Tilting EVF
Easy to accidentally set focus point, Limited number of lenses, Buttons not customisable

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...
