CES 2014: Samsung Launches the NX30 Camera Alongside First Premium S Lens on Jan 02, 2014 Capture and share high quality imagery in an instant with advanced features, improved flexibility and fast connectivity.
Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd, announced today the professionally-inspired compact system camera NX30, featuring high quality images and with faster performance. Samsung also expanded its line of NX lenses with the introduction of its first S' Series premium lens.
Simon Stanford, Vice President of IM division, Samsung Electronics UK and Ireland, said: Our award-winning NX series of cameras continues to evolve with the introduction of the NX30, which will feature a better imaging processor and our advanced Smart Camera offering. This camera delivers the performance users demand, combined with unmatched photo-sharing, allowing photographers to shoot with confidence and share immediately.
Image Quality at the Core
High quality images with rich colour are guaranteed with the advanced 20.3MP APS-C CMOS Sensor. Delivering shots which are bursting with sharp detail and intense colours, the large sensor is ideal for creating rich images with dramatic foreground and background blur, providing professional quality imaging that ignites the visual senses. Featuring the Samsung NX AF System II that boasts fast and accurate auto focusing, this new model ensures all moments, including fast-moving scenes and subjects, will never be missed.
Capturing short-lived, fast-paced moments in perfect clarity is achievable with the NX30s exceptionally fast 1/8000 sec Shutter Speed and the 9 frames per seconds (FPS) Continuous Shooting function. These features help to further break down the action and capture movement beyond what the eye can see so that each split second can be appreciated.
Featuring a unique Tiltable Electronic Viewfinder (XGA, 2,359K-dot resolution), the NX30 makes it easier than ever to discover a new perspective. When a more creative angle is desired, the 80 degree tilt means that different viewpoints are simple to achieve. With the ability to move from side to side up to 180 degrees, and upward and downward up to 270 degrees, the NX30s 76.7mm (3.0-inch) Super AMOLED Swivel and Touch Display offers flexible angles which are especially useful for self-shooting, whether for stills or video capture.
Smart Connectivity, Tag & Go
Building on the success of Samsungs market leading Smart Camera technology, the NX30s NFC and Wi-Fi capabilities offer the next-generation of connectivity, making it easier than ever to take advantage of a host of intuitive sharing features. The Tag & Go function lets users tap and share memories instantly and easily, pairing the NX30 with NFC enabled smartphones and tablets.
The Photo Beam feature allows the transfer of an image or video to a smartphone or tablet by simply touching the two devices together with no other configuration needed. MobileLink lets users select multiple images to send to four different smart devices at one time - without the need to take repetitive shots on each individual device. AutoShare automatically sends every photo taken instantly to smartphone or tablet devices and the Remote Viewfinder Pro function enables control of the NX30 from a smartphone, allowing the user to capture shots remotely yet still have full visibility of the scene. Manual settings can still be accessed, including shutter speed and aperture, so that photographers can retain camera control.
Dropbox, the popular web storage service is pre-loaded on the NX30 in selected regions - making it the first camera-specific device to offer direct-to-Dropbox uploading. Additionally, users of the NX30, in select regions, can upload directly to Flickr, the full resolution photo-sharing site - another first in a camera-specific device. Using the advanced connected features of the NX30, images can be uploaded automatically so photographers will not need to be concerned with filling up their memory cards.
Experience Life from all Angles
The NX30 includes the sophisticated next-generation DRIMeIV Image Processor and a powerful DSP imaging engine that brings an unmatched shooting experience and Full HD 1080/60p movie capabilities. The high light sensitivity of the NX30, with a range from ISO100-25600, produces stunning images even in low light conditions and with OIS Duo technology, steady shots for better movie recording are guaranteed, even while on the move. The innovative technology provided by the DRIMeIV Image Processor also enables the 3D capture of scenes and subjects via the Samsung 45mm F1.8 2D/3D lens, letting memories live on through lifelike 3D images and videos displayed on compatible 3D devices. The introduction of OLED Colour to the NX30 records ultimate contrast and real colours, making it possible to capture landscapes that are rich and portraits with natural tones.
Advanced video features make the NX30 the ideal solution for moviemakers searching for a compact yet high performing camera. In addition to Full HD Video Stereo Recording, the NX30 supports a standard 3.5mm microphone input for high quality audio capture while shooting movies. The Audio Level Meter appears on the display so you can continuously monitor the input level status while recording. In addition, the input level can be manually adjusted to ensure optimal audio quality. Moreover the NX30 is also perfect for advanced video enthusiasts because of its HDMI live streaming with Full HD 30p output that makes it easy to connect with a large screen, recorder, and other HDMI devices.
Intuitive design is a central feature of the NX30. Two dedicated Custom Modes can be accessed on the mode dial, allowing preferred camera settings to be retrieved quickly, while ten additional custom sets can be stored on the camera. The separate drive dial also provides instant access to a selection of popul
