The [Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-isocell-zoom-anyplace) NX3000 is a high-quality compact camera with an interchangeable lens. The camera comes with a flip-out viewfinder screen for taking selfies.

The NX3000 comes with a 16-50 mm Power Zoom lens, which can be controlled by the camera using the Remote Viewfinder Pro functionality. The 3-inch viewfinder screen can be flipped out to act as a front-facing viewfinder, with users able to trigger snaps with a wink.

The NX3000 is equipped with a 20.3 MP APS-C CMOS sensor, 1/4000 shutter speed and continuous shooting at five frames per second. It also comes with Samsung's Tag & Go technology, which allows users to beam photos from their camera to friend's mobile phones and remotely control the camera with a smartphone.

The camera weighs 230 grams, excluding the battery. It is contained within [retro-styled housing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaroid-flip) and is available in three colors - black, white and brown.
