Polaroid im1836 was there first, but they were sued by Nikon over "patented" design and never made it to the market. Ironically, it was similar to this camera, but I guess suing Samsung was way out of their league.
@@CVerse Well, it's still a camera os in a way, they just added a bunch of extra features to these cameras, which we call smart phones for some unknown reason 😂
Samsung was such a cool camera company. But they didn't give the company the time to catch on with people and become big like Sony. I wish they would come back and make full frame cameras with all the modern tech plus some tech that no other company is doing.
Had a nx300. Crappiest camera I ever had. Software bugs, only 2 or 3 lenses you could buy and after a year the sensor broke and couldn't be fixed. Sold it and turned to Fujifilm and never looked back.
I have the 9mm to 27mm lens and I have the detachable flash unit as well. I absolutely love Samsung cameras. Samsung Galaxy Camera Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 Samsung Galaxy NX Samsung NX30 Samsung NX500 Samsung NX1 Dude, I have the Samsung speed flash. It’s literally the only flash unit that will work with high-speed flash syncing with Samsung cameras and it’s awesome. Samsung NX Mini. There is supposedly an external microphone that connects directly through the hot shoe, but I’m not sure if that actually exists or if it was just something that had planned, but I’ve seen it although it might be renderings I can tell you that if you want to get the 17mm lens or the NX mini to full size NX adapter good fucking luck trying to find one and if you do, it’s going to be over $1000 Also have the battery grip for my NX1 as well. I also have a plethora of lenses, including my favorite the 85mm NX lens and the 45mm NX lens and the 50mm to 200mm NX lens to name a few. I love my collection of Samsung cameras and lenses.
Used to have this camera or another version of it which was also a halo phone half camera hybrid with interchangeable lenses. I also remember that it had an android operating system that could somehow run CZcams as well as the appstore 😂
Had the camera recently, sold it after a month. The pictures coming out of it were blurry and plain awful. As much as “retro tech” is the trend right now, this camera wasn’t it. Think back to how the picture quality of the first wave of smart phones were. People please don’t waste your cash on this, you will regret it.
An updated version of this would be hit this time, They can use their computational photography experience from smartphones, Half the cost of S24 ultra & better image & footage.
I have two NX Samsung cameras (NX200 and NX 30) and some lenses (30mm, 16mm, 8mm and 18-55mm) and they still damn good ten years after. It's a shame they abandoned the cameras branch.
oh hey i remember this i went to buy a camcorder for my dad who was visiting me in south africa and these mirrorless cameras had just come out and was on display at the samsung store and it was the first time i had held/heard of a 'mirrorless' camera.
Samsung should have continued making cameras... Look at the current Sony compact cameras... there is still nothing better than that. Some products were even equipped with Android, and photos could be uploaded directly to SNS.
Hey does anyone know if this camera is compatible with any lens from different brands that still fits then able to take picture? I've been looking around to buy this camera but it seems like most of the sellers informed me that although the camera body is fine the lenses will always have some type of issue anyone can help?😅😢
It may not be the "same" Samsung. Samsung (like LG or Hyundai) is a chebol - an umbrella of companies with the same name (but each of them must earn for itself).
@@schm147 agree, the lens and the software expertise obtained over the years in making the output from small sensors as well as they are today, imagine all that expertise now clubbed in with actual larger hardware, I'm optimistic about the future of smartphone cameras
I'm both holding a samsung and watching this on a samsung tv I feel especially called out today though both the 700 phone and 1600 tv cost me nothing thanks to the glory of helping my neighbours and family. (tv is worth like 100 now it's old lol plasma go brrt)
We want point and shoot digital camera back! We don't want to stick with camera phones! Imagine you are drowning into the river water but nobody will help you! Instead, they will take photos of your drowning. Camera phones are dangerous to our humanity.
I LOVED my mini with the fake brown leather. My lens had a slight issue and Samsung told me(on the west coast of the USA) that if I want the quick fix it needs that I would need to send it to England but specifically sending it to someone in the UK I knew and trusted(i know no one) and then having them drive it to the samsung repair shop and pick it up when fixed and then ship it all the way back to myself. WHAT!? Their repair ability is a 0 for any minor issue leading local repair shops to NEVER repair samsung cameras as they do not allow people to get parts. DO NOT BUY SAMSUNG CAMERAS UNTIL THEY CHANGE THEIR BACKWARD POLICIES! I LOVED this camera so much and it hurt when they wouldn't help the minor issue I had rendering the whole thing E waste. I fully back the sony model A series now! They work for the people in my cases.
The term "mirrorless" stems from the fact that these types of camera are essentially D-SLRs without the internal mirror. But I agree, these days every camera is mirrorless, so it's probably not the best name for them. I guess the full terminology would be "Mirrorless interchangeable lens camera", but that's a bit of a mouthful.
@@TomCaltonthat is why they are called mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera, (MILC) or my favorite EVIL (electronic viewfinder interchangeable lens)
Another, although much better, camera which is also not mentioned often is the Nikon Coolpix A, which sports an APS-C sensor and a great f2.8 prime
it costs much more and plus it is very rare
The Coolpix A is incredible! worth every penny!
Sony R1 APA-C and great lens
@foca2002 But that's anything but compact and that's what this is all about.
I feel so old now, I was actively selling these cameras in London shops when they were just being released… 👴🏻
This camera was from the future at the time.

@@corwin.macleod oh wow i didnt know this, thanks for the random fact!!
I liked their camera line. The OS that ran the cameras was Android 4.2 and had Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities.
that’s funny 😂
Kinda ironic considering Android was first developed to be an OS for digital cameras anyways
@@CVerse Well, it's still a camera os in a way, they just added a bunch of extra features to these cameras, which we call smart phones for some unknown reason 😂
Ah yes... I love watching reels on my tv

To be fair I tried it at one point, ironically on a Samsung TV.

Sometimes you can get it for less than $200. I want one to adapt it to Pentax 110 lenses
you could get a nikon j1 for half that but prob not as good
@@chimpinator005 yes! You can find them for less than $50, gotta try it!
Where can I possibly find one?
Imagine if they continued to develop this
I love how every time you see toms selfies in action its like watching an aphex twin video 😂
Damn it Tom, the look on the flip out screen 😂

I wish camera companies were still releasing cameras that size, or even the size of the Canon M100/200,
I miss the camera on my Galaxy S5...preferred it over the one on my S23 Ultra..the colors..the overall look..everything
Are you joking ? Pictures from that thing was looking like a potato
No way, i still think it was one of the best sensors
Those photos are mad clear😮
THis camera still shoots great 1080p videos
I remember those and the statement they did that they will retire from the cameras “war field” to focus on something else
Shit he got me
I use a samsung 😂
Who in their right mind would specifically watch this short vertical video on a Samsung Tv?
Bro overestimated his worth a bit

I think they put this same sensor in the Galaxy K Zoom. That phone had a beast of a camera.
My friend had it and it had many many bugs
Imagine putting a medium format lens on that
The images look like we’re in a game
I remembered the also had a cell phone and it turned into a digital camera in the back. It was pretty good.
Also one of the most adaptable lens mount ever built. You can virtually mount any lens in the world
Damn that has a better quality than my 2020 Chinese phone

Hold on, people watch shorts on tv's? Talk about inconvenient
There’s a bunch of tiny lumix camera you can get for less than 300
My dad has it and he says its super good BUT he really wants the 17mm lens and we've never seen it for sale anywhere
Not me putting an absolute monster of a telephoto lens on the smallest pocket camera known to man
I completely memoryholed this one
Samsung, we're doing very very well. They were going in the right direction and then they suddenly stopped. 🤦🏼♂️
Is that Calgary?!
I still have my NX 3000 :D and I still use it too
Do you always surprise yourself when you see yourself while taking a selfie? 😂😂
Yes. I'm easily startled
@@TomCalton 😆😆
I had one of those but unfortunately they have few lenses for it
Is the link your channel name/icon?
Shame it didn't developed any further. Would've been a great competitor to the major APSC and micro four thirds market.
so what is crop factor of this camera (vs ASPC & MFT)
Samsung should have continued making cameras...
Look at the current Sony compact cameras... there is still nothing better than that.

how?????😮
youd be wrong about both phone and tv
Nobody makes fun cameras anymore.

Incredible that we are at the point where phones have begun incorporating 1inch sensor inside them beginning with xiaomi 14 ultra. Fun times ahead

I like my Nikon 1 J1
samsung was definitely ahead of the curve, 100% could have taken down sony as the mirrorless king. but they just, gave up? lmao i don’t know why
Nope, but they did make the screen for it [I have a Google pixel]
i wonder how it compares with the samsung galaxy s24 ultra hehe
None commented on the 6.9 oz samsung nx mini yet lol
Samsung had the tech, the money, the resources, but not the fan based... Samsung would had been a better competitor for Sony than Canon and Nikon.

Bold to assume a majority of your audience is holding a Samsung phone 💀

Only 3 lenses? Just make an adapter.

If youre using an iPhone youre still watching this on a Samsung display!
They should put this 1 inch sensor in their phones now
You can already buy phone with 1 inch sensor
I want it
Samsung has this thing for over processing image and over saturation… but it’s what Samsung people likes about Samsung I guess…
No opponents?
I think there is no point calling a camera without a viewfinder "mirrorless" 😅 Using that logic every smartphone has a mirrorless camera.
The term "mirrorless" stems from the fact that these types of camera are essentially D-SLRs without the internal mirror. But I agree, these days every camera is mirrorless, so it's probably not the best name for them.
