Re-thought body lay-out, flip-up viewfinder and vibrant rear LCD, versatile Wi-Fi features, i-Function lens system
Plasticky build, slight softening towards frame edges with kit lens, should be available with powered lens kit bundle, wind noise on movies
The Samsung NX30 marks a significant upgrade for the upper-end of Samsung's mirrorless line-up, and is among the most tempting system cameras we've yet tested. Once again the i-Function lens is a highlight and one we'd like to see other manufacturer...
Excellent design, Superb EVF and LCD, Wi-Fi and NFC, Dropbox integration
So-so plastic body, Over-processes JPEGs from ISO 1600
The NX30 combines some neat innovations, an outstanding feature set and smart design to very good effect. The build quality and performance at high ISO is slightly disappointing, but neither should put you off seriously considering the NX30. It's a seriou...

Nice, handy camera without unnecessary gimmicks, Good image quality at lower ISO values (<3200 ISO), Includes Lightroom 5, Folding and rotating screen, hinged EVF viewfinder, Built-in WiFi options including remote operation
EVF viewfinder is less big and bright than the optical viewfinder of an SLR, Highest ISO settings are moderate, Battery pack capacity is just sufficient

Snappy autofocus. 8.6fps burst shooting. Excellent high ISO performance. Solid control layout. Vari-angle touch-screen display. Tilting EVF. Integrated flash. Wi-Fi with NFC. 1080p60 video with mic input.
Limited burst shooting. EVF lags in dim light. On the bulky side. No alternate kit or body only purchase options. Dedicated charger not included

The Samsung NX30 provides a DSLR-like experience in a mirrorless camera, with the very un-DSLR-like provision of great live view performance. Its built-in EVF, high-resolution APS-C sensor and connectivity features are very useful, and though we don't fee...
