[Samsung](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-galaxy-s23-series-accessories) is hitting on all cylinders with the release of its DSLR the Samsung NX30. Samsung also had a different, slightly more upscale release with its NX300 but this camera has less of a focus on 3D shooting and more on usability.

The main standout feature on the Samsung NX30 is the EVF viewer that extends up like a video camera and the slide-out touch screen. Essentially this is the best of both worlds in terms of marrying video camera flexibility with [DSLR power and design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sigma). There’s also a 1/8000s shutter speed which is top class. You won’t find many faults with the camera unless you go looking for them and for the less storied of the two cameras, it still delivers a high-end experience.

The camera comes bundled with [Adobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canon-eos-c50) Photoshop Lightroom 5 and a 18-55mm lens, which has the entire kit floating around $1,000, all in all not bad for some a strong piece of tech.
