  • While it might seem like there's a lack of innovation in photography technology right now, the smaller players are making some very interesting strides. The NX1, Samsung's first camera aimed at professionals, brings new sensor technology and a brand new video codec to the market for the first time. But is it enough to make photographers jump on this relatively untested system?

      Why not recruit a sidekick to bug you too! And how about borrowing an NX1 and weighing in on the debate? Psst: since you pretend to be a dummy (unlike the other sophisticates), why not check whether PowerDirector 13 does a half-decent job of supporting h.265 directly. You've already been candid enough to affirm that to grade s-log files in ProRes is a bit of a fool's errand for most folks.

    Most people don't know that Samsung in 2010 created the first APS-C mirrorless camera many months before Sony. Actually Samsung was the third company after Panasonic and Olympus with the micro 4/3 of 2008, that introduced a mirrorless camera for during early 2010. Mirrorless digital cameras for me are those with interchangeable lenses and autofocus.
    The problem with Samsung was the lenses. Samsung didn't produce fast a large variety of high quality NX mount lenses. Mirrorless cameras are mostly bought by amateur photographers with some experience who demand a variety of good lenses to choose. Otherwise a smartphone is fine and lately premium smartphones offer multiple cameras with ultra wide, wide, normal or telephoto lenses with the use of periscope design.
    Samsung when saw that its mirrorless cameras wasn't very successful tried the NX mini mirrorless cameras in 2014 and NX mini 2 in 2015. Both cameras had a small 1" sensor and the shortest flange focal distance of all mirrorless cameras. The variety of NX mini mount lenses was even poorer than the APS-C NX mount lenses.
    The NX-1 of 2014 was the only samsung mirrorless camera with serious quality but it was introduced too late when the domination of Sony and Fujifilm on APS-C mirrorless market was established.
    The 2015 was the last year Samsung was interested with mirrorless cameras.
    The only Samsung NX mount mirrorless camera I appreciate very much is the Galaxy NX of 2013 with android system. The first camera and maybe the last with interchangeable lenses and with android operating system. The android of Galaxy NX couldn't connect with wifi to internet and had google play store with plethora of photo and social apps. A really amazing cameras the Samsung Galaxy NX and I regret that I didn't bought it then. I could bought it now but its android version is obsolete.

    These guys produce hands-down the best camera reviews on RUclips. Very professional and straight to the point. I admire their commitment. I mean who else is willing to get out there in that freezing cold weather to test a camera. Their videos are dynamic and entertaining. They cover lots of information in a short amount of time. You can tell they know what they are talking about. I like the fact that they cover both, the still and the video aspects of the cameras, but what I like the most is their unbiased opinion. They sell camera gear but they will tell you all the pros and cons; no sugar coating or butt kissing here.
    I also like MichaelTheMentor, "mega productions", Philip Bloom, Jared Polin, Tony Northrup "over analytical" style, Matt Granger, Dave Dugdale "down to earth" style, Faymus Media, and Digital Rev Tv (this last one for the comedy only).

    It's actually feels better when Jordan and Chris has more conversation during the video. Having 10 min for Photographic & 10 for Video shutting feels like a good idea because now a days shutting video are more and more common for everyone. However, I wish Chris does not feel upset. Both you guys are really the best ever. This change just make this channel even better.

    Watching this in 2020 as someone who wasn't big into camera gear at the time (I just took the recommendation of the b&h guy because I was 14 and was using all my savings to buy a camera) this feels like a camera that does most of the things people like about Fuji cameras right now. Solid controls, good build quality, high quality EVFs and a solid stable of native glass. Maybe the fuji cameras look nicer to most people but I'm actually a big fan of the exterior build they were going for with this body

  • @matt_phistopheles
    @matt_phistopheles 5 лет назад +2

    Mid of 2019 now and the NX1 is still very impressive. This could have been the start of a fantastic camera system. Samsung had the technology and the funds back then to become a really big player in the mirrorless market. Too bad that they quit building 'real' cameras.

  • @kevindiossi
    @kevindiossi 10 лет назад +3

    LOL, loved the F-bomb. Excellent review. Sounds like it's a camera to be taken very seriously, and if it is, many of the software gripes you voth have could be taken care of - maybe even the lens mount conversions too. The AF may be a firmware update away from improved reliability, but honestly, that's where the mirrorless cameras have always lagged behind their elder dSLRs. Not having a dedicated autofocusing sensor here could mean it never achieves the effectiveness of say 7D2. I shot a low light concert last night with my 7D2 and it was absolutely impressive in performance. That's where I see the benefits to the dSLR, but it's painfully obvious it's been left behind in the image quality department. I guess we can say Samsung is a real heavy contender in this market now and that's great. Great job.
    Were the ISO test images processed RAW or JPEG? They seemed JPEG to me and I never consider them as a credible format for image comparison. Still, incredible sharpness!!

  • @SMGJohn

  • @Broadus45
    @Broadus45 10 лет назад +3

    Finally a review of the NX1, I always had a soft spot for the NX line of camera's. I never was completely satisfied with Sony's styling and wanted them to make a camera like this. Don't get me wrong Sony is wonderful but I think Samsung is getting some stuff right, like available lenses, SLR design, touch screen, and the menu system.
    However, Sony of course has a full frame sensor but I was never fully on board with the design or feel in my large hands. Plus the lenses are bigger and not all that available. I currently have a GH3 which is great but I am a little jealous of having a larger sensor sometimes. Maybe I will get a NEX6 to fulfill my APSC fantasy.

  • @thecandidframe
    @thecandidframe 10 лет назад +9

    Did you upgrade the firmware of the 85mm lens before using it on the NX1. It may be one of the reasons why the AF performance was sub par as well as the fact that a smaller rather than a larger AF area was selected.

    I really hope Samsung beats the brand prejudice that it has around it. This seems like a really great camera, and I wish there was more support to the nx system from other manufacturers. I wish you guys would have done a better AF tracking test. Maybe a nx1 vs DSLR video is coming soon ?

  • @tptrsn
    @tptrsn 10 лет назад +3

    Fantastic video guys, and a VERY interesting camera subject to boot! It really looks like it has potential to become a great "all-in-one" camera option.
    Jordan, did you intend to have so much depth of field in the first shot and the shot at 2:07, or was it a situation of lacking sufficient levels of ND?
    #2) What lenses did you use on the GH4 for this, the image quality was really great. Thanks for restoring my faith in my trusty GH4! Haha
    #3) Did Chris have the NX1 on the Ronin for your walk and talk segment? It was really super smooth, and I wasn't sure how much of that was due to the stabilization qualities of the camera/lens(?), or whether it could almost all be down to the skill of Chris and the awesomeness of the camera stabilizer...

  • @photographerjonathan
    @photographerjonathan 10 лет назад +4

    wow I have been waiting for this review, and after watching it I am still excited about this camera, the image quality really seems amazing, the best of any apsc camera out there, and it sounds like with the new 16/50 f2 to 2.8 it focuses fast, and it seemed to track really well in video also, but I still wish you did more focusing test in this review, i'm surprised that the 16/50 f2 to f2.8 isn't being talked about more, it seems like it's the only one of it's kind, and from what you say its very sharp, If I was going to say a down side about the NX1, it would be the lack of a FULLY articulating screen, but at least it is touch, unlike the Sony A7 series of cameras, and being someone who is not experienced on the video side, it makes me a little intimidated when jordan says it's hard to work with, or hard in post, because if its hard for him, then what would it be for me, but other than that, this camera seems like it hit the ball out of the park, or atleast very close to a home run, and it really shows how behind Canon is with there sensor technology, I know the 7Dll focus system is top notch, but unfortunately they put it in a brick of a camera with no articulating touch screen, no 4k, no wifi, and a sensor that doesn't come close to this NX1, anyway after this review I am still not sure about the focusing system, so I would like to see some more detailed testing of the focus system, but overall a nice review

    • @tekhiun
      @tekhiun 10 лет назад

      I would also like to see a full comparison to pro DSLR, I think the issue with the AF system is strange, if you look at other reviews they don't report anything like that . I think it is a firmware issue with the lens, because since I updated the firmware on my 50-200 the AF became much faster for some reason. I am just gonna wait for more detailed review before making a decision

    • @Maker_HQ
      @Maker_HQ 10 лет назад

      tekhiun Maybe they didn't have the custom AF limiter setup correctly. You know it, how you can set the min and max focus distances in-camera?

    Hi Chris! Does the NX-1 not have the same 3-inch Super AMOLED touch panel used on the NX30?
    But unlike the NX30's fully-articulating mechanism, the NX1's just tilts, up to 90 degrees up and 45 degrees down..

  • @future62
    @future62 10 лет назад +1

    Very cool guys, thanks for getting this review out.
    Definitely curious to see how this stacks up IQ wise to something like an A7 or even D810. I'm not super worried about the interface as Samsung is pretty quick with firmware updates. The lenses could be an issue though. Their lens map has good spots but it's spotty as well.

  • @aasumpt

    The Samsung NX 16-50mm F2.0-2.8 S ED OIS is a very bright zoom and unique lens.
    The Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM A is a little brighter but less wider at 18mm, less narrower at 35mm and much larger and heavier.

    @Its_just_me_again 8 лет назад

    hi guys, loved the video! im glad your final thoughts were mostly positive as i just purchased the camera 2nd hand yesterday. i don't have a photography background but liked the specs and various field tests, comparisons and reviews i had watched. i was aware that samsung had pulled out of the market and this was my main concern, especially if the unit needed servicing etc. lens choices doesnt concern me, the kit 16-50 i got with it is fine for my needs and i might get myself a prime a lil down the track.
    my questions to you please are:
    1) many of the firmware related issues you mentioned; do you know which of these have been now addressed with updates?
    2) my understanding is that many softwares are starting to support h.265 now, adobe premier pro etc, im guessing this is something that will continue?
    3) i know it comes down to personal taste, but i will mainly use the unit for video opposed to stills and travel and small rock gigs, what size prime would you purchase?
    4) with the rock shows, again i know there is no definitive setup as it depends on many variables, but for a noob like myself, what might be a typical video setup i.e ISO etc (with low light but vibrant coloured led lightshow)
    thankyou kindly :D

    @srcultureshock 10 лет назад

    Excellent review as always guys! I'm slightly disappointed by the video capabilities of this camera. The camera body has all the features a videographer would want but the lenses are difficult to use for video due to its focus by wire design. The video quality is excellent but it's hampered by a codec that needs extra processing in post. Hopefully Samsung will improve on these shortcomings and make this camera even better.

  • @jeromy3272

  • @NNCwatcher2
    @NNCwatcher2 6 лет назад +1

    I have this camera still for photography. It's fun to see most of the points discussed i experience with this model. However, Sports with the af system is a nightmare. I was shooting as a volunteer today at a triathlon in my home city. And so many of the pictures were out of focused i was seriously shocked. Never had it that bad. However, still got some nice shots though. But i love this camera as a stills, landscape, macro photography etc. It does a great job with most of the things you throw at it. which is great. But i do miss the quicker focusing system when it comes to wildlife. I am thinking about switching my NX30 around for a Pentax K-S2 for wildlife/sports. I am very sure it will compete much better focusing wise. and use my NX1 for the other jazz that i do.

    Congrats for this review! I learned about this camer asince September, it was launched last wek and I expected a lot of people to focus on it. But you are among the first and this is a greta thing you did!
    So I wanted this camera but still is not available here in ROmania.
    My question is ( as you already have some experience with the GH4) how would you compare it with the GH4 ? ISO seeme to be better but you said for filming is not good from 3200. So gh4 is good at 3200?
    2. COntinous focusing in film mode: is it better thna GH4? My feeling is that GH4 have issues in focusing in film mode.
    Also fo stills I found Gh4 not a quality camera as the sharpnes and details are not so good. Looks like NX1 is better here.
    Just give us some comments on these please. Thanks!

    Would you say that NX1 AF system is closer to Sony NEX-6 or Sony A6000

    I hope S9 and above can have this too! Samsung has been advancing through the camera department in mobile phones and I hope the 4096 x 2160 (4K) would be implemented in Samsung rather than 3840 x 2160 (UHD)

    Great to see this 'rare' Camera reviewed, it _is_ something new from Samsung; too bad about the limited Lens lineup for it, at least the few they have range from decent to excellent.

    Just out of curiosity, how long did it take for you to convert the H265 files? I'm really highly contemplating buying this camera but video editing is something i absolutely love doing so waiting a long time for it to convert might be a hassle.

  • @catfish7754

    Could you guys do an updated review for the video features after the new firmware updates? I've heard it turns this camera into an awesome video performer.

    • @TheCameraStoreTV

      An episode taking a look at the recent major firmware updates for some of the more noteworthy cameras on the market such as the Samsung NX1 is a very realistic possibility in the near future.

      TheCameraStoreTV I know it's been a while but it'd be nice if you can have another look at the autofocus after the latest firmware update. Tony Northrup (yt channel) has talked about how amazing the autofocus is on the NX1. Is that just for video?

    Nice review, although looking at the noise comparison with the K-3 there seemed to be more detail in the Pentax image, in the leather grip in particular.. it this an issue with the youtube video compression?

    Great review! Just one question about the Samsung NX1. Will a future firmware update enable smooth, cinematic focus changes while shooting video?
    I recently purchased a Samsung NX1 and the 16-50mm f/2-2.8 lens to test. I believe the NX1 is a better camera than anything available from Canon. I am testing it with an eye to buying 3 bodies and several lenses. There is currently only one small problem preventing me from moving forward. I shoot TV commercials and stills for ad agencies. While shooting video with the NX1 camera in auto focus mode I touch the screen on the face of the person speaking. When that person is done and another person starts to speak I touch their face. Everything works great except that the focus changes so quickly that it is jarring to watch. Unusable unfortunately.
    My suggestion is to have Samsung's digital imaging software engineers test the Canon 70d along side the NX1. I know the Samsung NX1 has the processing power to do anything the Canon 70D can do. The 70D easily creates usable video by slowly (relative to the NX1) and smoothly changing the focus position without any hunting as it achieves final focus. The effect is similar in experience to watching a feature film.
    As far as the image quality, resolution, size, weight, wireless connectivity, feature set and handling of the NX1, it seems just about perfect to me. My numerous tests show the Samsung NX1 using h.265 codec captures noticeably better quality video than the 70D All-I codec with less than 1/9 the file size! I can convert the Samsung h.265 1080p to ProRes 422 almost as quickly as the conversion from Canon's All-I to ProRes 422. The still photos are sharper and in my opinion superior to the Canon 1D, 5D Mk II, and 70D cameras. At least up to iso 800 which is all I've tested so far. When I say sharper I mean NX1 photos seem twice as sharp as the 70D. In pursuit of sharpness I have very carefully calibrated back focus for four L series lenses on my 70D.
    After using follow-focus rigs for years I will never go back to that. Touch screen combined with auto following facial recognition for video focus allows a very high percentage of good takes. Lens change - no problem!
    I love the Samsung NX1camera. I really, really want it to work for my use. It breaks my heart to think of returning it to B&H Photo. Unfortunately I can't use it for delivering pro video with the way I want to do focus. Please tell me that some future firmware update will enable smooth, cinematic focus changes while shooting video!
    btw- Continuous autofocus is pretty darn good. I only falls apart if there is significant distance between the focus points selected by touch during video shooting.

    What is really important to me, and I expect many people that would move to Samsung, would be the sports/action ability of the Samsung NX1 and system. Note, Samsung has set up for the following "PRO" lenses: 16-50 f2.8 OIS, 50-150 f2.8 OIS, 1.4X TC, and 300mm f4 OIS. Also note those are the same Olympus has lined up. I am sure no small reason they are the same. So, I would sure like to see what they can do compare to each other as well as to the dSLR leader-Canon 7D MKII.

    NX1 is looking very good. I have a Nikon D600 and a Sony A7. But I have a specific need for 4K 60fps. Hopefully they will not make me wait too long.

    Haha I love Dave dugdale, I guess he wants Jordan to shine a little, great video guys camera looks real nice, might hit the mark for me I'm do for a new dslr, not full frame but I think I could live with that, also can't go wrong with 4k video and the best part no funny attachments to make it work.

  • @DogzDinette
    @DogzDinette 10 лет назад

    Always enjoy your videos reviews if just purely for general market info. Not buying this Samsung, but am interested in the gloves you both were wearing. Did Jordan's pair have wrist lanyards (idiot strings) Sorry for off topic but am looking for some cold weather shooting glove options.

    Thank for the review guys! I have been a Sony Guy for some years now and have been looking closely at their newest Mirror-less offerings. I find the lack of GPS notable in an otherwise feature rich offering. That said I've started looking around and the NX1 has caught my eye. They mention that GPS geotagging can be added via a blue tooth enabled Smart device. My question is does this work in remote locations (Africa/South America etc) and how much of a drain is on the device and camera batteries as charging in remote locations can also be challenging?

    The Nokia 808 PureView downsamples (with a CPU dedicated for the camera) the full resolution images from the sensor to 1080p in real time. That is over 30 megapixels 30-24 times per second :P

  • @Bakamanzz
    @Bakamanzz 10 лет назад

    Looks like a great first step for Samsung, I'd wait for the Mk.2 of this before buying(filmmaking use) because the lens mount can be a real killer, by version 2 if this camera is popular enough there will be an adapter by then and some of the software side will be fixed along with editing suites accepting the new h.265 codec. Just seems smarter to wait it out for now.
