[Gadget Review] Samsung NX Mini Interchangeable Lenses


Good morning peeps! Do you still remember my previous post (link here) about Samsung's slimmest and lightest interchangeable-lens camera, Samsung NX mini? Today I'm going to do a short review focusing on its interchangeable lenses. Samsung has introduced two NX mini lenses (NX-M) which are optimised for use with the NX mini body, providing a variety of options to meet individual shooting preferences: NX-M 9mm F3.5 ED lens and NX-M 9-27mm F3.5-5.6 ED OIS lens.



The one I'm using currently is NX-M 9mm F3.5 ED lens which has an ultra-slim design (only 13mm thick!) and its wide angle makes it the ideal choice for those capturing landscapes and self-portraits. However, do bear in mind it is not zoomable and it does not contain optical image stabilization.

While the other lens, NX-M 9-27mm F3.5-5.6 ED OIS lens (available on 1st June 2014) is a micro-compact zoom lens yet it is small enough to comfortably fit into pockets and bags. Differ from the normal pancake lens, it offers a variety of shooting options from wide-angle to telephoto shots, with optical image stabilization for sharp results.


3.0-inch flip-up and touch display that rotates 180-degrees matches with the ultra-slim 9mm wide angle lens, you can easily capture group shots from an arm's length. #WefieNX


For professional photographer, you can use other 15 NX lenses on Samsung NX mini by using a specialised NX-M Mount Adapter too. Do note that these lenses are sold separately.

Now let's see some of the pictures I've taken with my NX mini and I gotta say I'm kinda impressed with the outcome. I didn't expect it can take such clear and sharp quality images and they are rich in colours. Perfect for selfies and street shooting! :D

With 'Smart-Rich Tones' mode 

With 'Smart-Food' mode 

With 'Aperture Priority' mode 

With 'Smart-Landscape' mode

'Smile shot' with 'Smart-Beauty' mode 

'Shutter Priority' mode without flash 

With 'Smart-Food' mode

As a blogger, camera is a very important tool and I think Samsung NX mini performs pretty well actually. I will do a full review later on; from unboxing, its signature 'wink shot' feature, 'tag n go' feature and so on. I can't wait to bring it to Macau and discover more about it! :P In the meantime. do follow me on Facebook and Instagram for more pictures taken with this NX mini with hashtags #myNXmini.

Samsung NX mini comes in 5 colours: white, pink, mint green, brown and black. It retails at RM1,399 only (with 9mm F3.5 lens) while the other kit lens will be available starting 1st June 2014. For more information, please visit http://bit.ly/1h202vz.

  6. Good review Yuh Jiun. I've seen some great shots that the NX mini can do and the fact that's it so much more lighter than a DSLR minus the weight is very appealing.

  10. What amazing pictures. It is so much smaller than my DSLR and can fit perfectly in a handbag which mine don't. I think I need this for a quick camera that I can carry around with me.

  11. Ah, this camera looks good, especially when you're out and about! I use a Canon Powershot G15 for blogging and concerts (as some productions do not allow professional cameras) and I think this point and shoot will be a great alternative to my G15. Thanks for the review!

  12. Indeed Samsung is really advance in technology, but I will consider it still need more effort to improve the image quality.
