Samsung NX mini

Samsung NX mini is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Samsung NX mini rather than just read about it. In short: The Samsung NX mini is a digital rangefinder-style interchangeable lens mirrorless camera announced by Samsung on March 19, 2014. Design features The NX mini features a self-portrait mode where flipping the rear screen to face forward turns the camera on, and a wink will start a two-second countdown timer to shutter release.

Key takeaways

  • Samsung NX mini belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
  • Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
  • Connect Samsung NX mini to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
  • Reproduce the core statement of Samsung NX mini from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

The Samsung NX mini is a digital rangefinder-style interchangeable lens mirrorless camera announced by Samsung on March 19, 2014.

Design features The NX mini features a self-portrait mode where flipping the rear screen to face forward turns the camera on, and a wink will start a two-second countdown timer to shutter release. Photographs may be shared via flickr and Dropbox when the NX mini is connected using its onboard Wi-Fi, or transmitted to compatible smartphones through NFC.

NX Mini 2 In June 2015, rumors were circulated of a NX mini 2. Based on leaked specifications, the NX mini 2 would feature high-resolution 4K video recording and interchangeable front covers. It would use the same sensor with an AMOLED rear screen and a battery with slightly less capacity (1820 mAh versus 2330 mAh).

Lenses The NX mini uses a 1" sensor, giving it a 2.7x crop factor relative to 35mm. It uses the Samsung NX-M lens mount with a register of 6.95 mm, which is among the shortest in existence. An adaptor (ED-MA4NXM) may be separately purchased to mount larger lenses using the Samsung NX-mount, which is designed for an APS-C sensor.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Samsung NX mini

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Samsung NX mini claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Samsung NX mini before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Samsung NX mini ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Samsung NX mini

In research
Samsung NX mini appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry
Engineering practice reuses Samsung NX mini in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom
Samsung NX mini is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1.0-type digital cameras, Camera stubs, Live-preview digital cameras, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life
Look for Samsung NX mini outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
