Why I love my Samsung NX Mini camera #NXmini

I have been using my NX mini camera for about two months already, and i'm loving it more everyday!

And it was given to me at the perfect time since it is my last days of uni life, I can't help but just capture as much memories as I could, and thanks to NX mini, it couldn't be easier!

One thing I really love about this camera ....


Stylish because I can

I love the sophisticated leatherette design that gives it such sleek, and to make things better, it is the world's smallest and slimmest interchangeable lens camera.
Gives me such convenience, i ALWAYS have it inside my bag, never a burden! Weighing only 58g, I could easily slip it inside my bag or pocket, capturing stunning image quality pictures on the go :)


What makes it even better, they have 5 options of the prettiest colors to choose from! Look at that! 
What's your favourite? Although I'm known to love pink, but I can't say no to that mint green leatherette camera! Mint green for me fo sho!


Selfies made easier





With just a quick flip of the 3.0'' touch display, the NX Mini is on, and ready to take the perfect selfie!
Samsung NX mini features 3-inch flip up touch display camera up to 180-degree :)
The powerful optical performance offers crisp, high quality images thanks to its 9mm wide angle lens and large 1-inch type 20.5MP BSI CMOS Sensor, you can capture high quality images of group shots from an arm’s length away.

Let me show you some of the amazing high quality selfie pictures i've taken so far as proof. I absolutely love the quality!

 My NX mini accompanying me while I was studying hahaa..


A day trip to visit the historical sites in KL!


Yeap, and this was just taken yesterday during my girlfriend, Valerie's birthday dinner :)


 I swear I did not edit the pictures! Could you feel the crisp and quality in these pictures?
I love how it makes our skin look so flawless hehehe, no harm cheating alil bit ya? :P 


 Plus, I love how I could take quality group selfies so easily !

The picture above was taken on the first day I got my hands on my NXmini with the other bloggers :D

My fav boys and I before watching X-men :)


Wink and Shoot!

Alright, this has to be my FAVORITE feature of NX Mini!
You know how challenging/ tricky selfies could get when you have to try to fit all your friends together, look good, and at the same time try to click on the shutter button without your hands shaking? You get me right? Hahaa. I know, so much first world problem, but heck.. I have to admit this side of me hahaa.

But NX Mini totally solves this problem!

It has the face detection feature where it could detect when you 'SMILE' or 'WINK' , and in two seconds, the camera detects and automatically takes the photo for you!
I've tried it and I'm converted! Hahaha! I alwaysss put my selfie camera mode into the 'Smile Shot' and it never fails to detect my smile :D :D :D




Yeap! All the selfie pictures that you've probably seen from my instagram/ facebook, they are all on the 'Smile and Shoot' mode, heheh! No need for me to press the shutter button :D Just like the one above :)





The pictures above are taken on my final exam day a couple of days ago! My friends were so fascinated with the auto-smile shot of the camera! Hahaa.
 Finally done with exams, can you imagine? Seems so surreal , but i guess I have a new chapter in life to pursue!




Haha, and this picture, my guy friend, Julius, being such a good sport ! Was telling him about the 'Wink and Shoot' feature, and he was so surprised that it actually works! Lol!


That's me and my friend, Ryo, being all sad cause uni's over already... :/ (hahaha he's not happy that i'm posting this picture but whatever :P )



Interchangeable Lens! 














Samsung introduced 2 NX mini lenses where each one is optimized for use with NX mini body: NX-M 9mm F3.5 ED lens (ultra-slim design and wide angle), NX-M 9-27mm F3.5-5.6 ED OIS lens (micro-compact zoom lens).

Well, just change the lenses to match the types of photographs you want to capture :)

Well, it'd defeat the purpose if I boast so much about the camera but do not show you more pictures that i've taken, so here they are below :)

I took the chance to take some pictures in my university before I leave school, so here they are, and i love the quality of the pictures :)

So here you go, welcome to my university ! :) I think it's pretty (although it cannot be compared to the campus in UK hahaa ) but I definitely appreciate the campus here, the friends, and the fond memories that'd definitely linger for a long long time ..






Yeap, and if you didn't know, it is a lakeside campus! 










:') Definitely leaving me bittersweet. Byebye uni life! You've served me good. 



Finally.........

No Internet, No Problem!

Of course, this is most convenient for us who wants our pictures up right away! :D
I could now take lovely, quality pictures using my NX Mini camera, and direct link it to my phone since it has its own Wi-Fi, and share multiple photos with friends instantly!

If you were wondering, it works for all smart phones, not just Samsung ( I'm using an iPhone ), all I gotta do is download the Samsung App, and now, I could happily transfer photos from my NX mini to my phone instantly ! :)

Awesome! :D

Trust me, go give NX mini a try! :)

My Experience with the all new SAMSUNG NX Mini Camera #firstletmetakeaselfie


They say Carry the Style, Capture the best. 
Here, I have it, the all new Samsung NX mini :) 
The world's slimmest and lightest interchangeable lens camera !


Thanks to Samsung and Manoah, I had the privilege to have my hands on this pretty lil thing, happily playing around with it with an interesting twist!
Me and other 30 bloggers had a fun half-day, given the task to discover the streets of KL, snapping photographs on the streets according to the themes, either Historical Malaysian Buildings, Gastronomical Food, or Sights & Sound. 

My theme for the day was Historical Malaysian Buildings.

Before it all began, we gathered at NU Sentral and we were each given a goody bag, including the NX Mini camera. So excites! hahaha :D 
I

Have I not already told you about the 180 degrees flip screen?
With just a quick flip of the 3.0'' touch display, the NX Mini is on, and ready to take the perfect selfie!



When I say perfect, I mean it ! Picture below is the first selfie that I took with my NX Mini :)
I'm happy with how flawless it makes our skin look, the colours and the lighting :D
I swear I did not edit the picture!



 Haha, before we begin, #firstletustakeaselfie :P




That's Kelly and me  in the picture below, my partner of the day :) 
I really love the results of the pictures taken :)
Again, I did not edit it, all I did was flip the touch display, smile, and it was snapped!
Yes, no button necessary :) Selfie made so much easier ! NX Mini has the smile and wink detection function, just to name a few, and all you gotta do is smile / wink, and in two seconds, snapped! 
Next level convenience :D 


And here our journey begins!
*All the pictures were not edited*






My theme, like I mentioned, was Historical Malaysian buildings, hence, the pictures of buildings on the streets of KL :) 


I have to say, I'm impressed with the quality of the photos taken!
With a large 1-inch 20.5MP BSI CMOS sensor, the NX mini delivers amazingly high resolution .
Here's Kuan Ti Temple at Petaling Street, KL. 

 


It's Kelly and I again :)
I love how the picture turned out below :)
Colourful light rays shining on us ! Pretty colours !



And then we went on to The Sri Mahamariamman temple in Kuala Lumpur. I love how NX Mini could capture the beautiful colors of the temple, accompanied by the dreamy blue sky and clouds :)
Pretty photo.




Selfie again ! :) Look how good the quality of the selfie is. 
I'm slowly falling in love with NX mini <3
It even auto made my face looked more flawless :D



Honestly, I have never really taken pictures around KL. It's quite a shame that I tend to appreciate the beauty of other countries when I'm travelling abroad, but tend to forget how beautiful Malaysia is, and the culture within that is manifested.

Fortunately through this event, I start to realize, all over again, and appreciate the beautiful surroundings and the amazingly rich culture that is present right infront of my eyes.






Before I cross the road to Kasturi Walk and Pasar Seni... first...... 
hahahah..









Yay, mission accomplished. All, in an hour, a short but meaningful time discovering KL all over again :)   





Our day ended in Johnny Rockets over lunch :D



My first time in Johnny Rockets and I'm loving the lively vibes and amazing service :)




Still discovering more features and functions that NX mini does :)

Love the direct link wifi function with a twist!

Samsung Photo Beam lets you transfer photos with just a quick touch. Simply tap NX Mini on any NFC-compatible smartphone to automatically share the image you're viewing .




And... Yes.. 
My post has to end with selfies :P


 


It's Yuki and Me :) Love this bubbly girl! 


Thank you once again, Samsung and Manoah for such a fun and meaningful experience!

I'm loving my new NX mini!
