We first got wind that Samsung was planning a micro four-thirds competitor in 2009, when they unveiled the NX prototype at PMA, their first attempt at an interchangeable lens compact (ILC) camera. A new blog post from Samsung shows us just how radically different some of their prototypes were, and how much things changed between the various stages of design and the eventually released NX10.

It’s not always easy to get kids to flash a smile or pay attention to the camera, especially when you’re all huddled together flashing wacky faces or flaunting formal poses waiting for the flash to go off. The photographer begins the inevitable countdown: “3, 2, 1…”
And it is that exact moment that Junior decides he wants to pull your hair or scream for ice cream or look the other way as the picture gets snapped.

Samsung has unveiled its full range of cameras for the first half of 2011, with models that were announced at the Consumer Electronics Show earlier this year finally making their way to Australia.
The two hero models, the WB700 18x optical zoom compact and the NX11 interchangeable lens camera, are available on store shelves now. We had a chance to take both cameras out for a test run ahead of our full reviews.
All images have been taken straight from the cameras, with no adjustments made apart from resizing.
Samsung provided a special opportunity to enjoy all of the NX11 in all its glory to the photo bloggers in Berlin on April 8. It’s the street tour workshop for the bloggers to experience a lot of the functionalities the NX11 offers and for them to be inspired and motivated by touring Berlin’s streets and awesome places. They had a good time at this workshop to a get-together in a stylish restaurant.
The NX11 blogger workshop held in the city of culture and art! Shall we go?
Welcome and product presentation
PR manager Katja Meincke gave a welcoming speech and the product manager Achim Obermüller gave a product presentation in the Lux11 penthouse in the middle of Berlin. Looking at the picture below, can you feel how individuals were concentrating on the presentation?
The street photo tour in Berlin
After Samsung distributed test samples and everyone had hands-on time with the NX11, the guided photo tour began. The guided photo tour is for testing and showing off the advantages of the NX11. They went on the street photo tour to Café Intimes, Theaterkapelle, RAW-Tempel, Gärtnerstrasse and Café Kaufbar, and they began to take artistic pictures including ones that displayed their own individuality and creativity.
Bloggers’ photographs
Everyone became familiar with the fact that Berlin has hidden stunning places here and there. Feel this city through these fabulous photos of Berlin taken with the NX11 below.
Follow-up and get-together
They carried out follow-up work at Café Kaufbar and then they had a great dinner at Sage Restaurant where they are known for its first-class cuisine and the special atmosphere by setting the artful interior and lighting design. It was the perfect place to exchange views on the NX11 in a relaxed atmosphere.
Great opportunity to experience the NX11
Samsung received enthusiastic feedbacks from those who experienced this workshop. They left warm thank-you notes. Below are some of the notes that were left:
Michael Kirchner : Once more I would like to say thank you for the felicitous NX11 workshop. I’m curious to test the NX11 during the next weeks.
Oliver Schäf : Thank you for the great opportunity! Generally speaking, I’m positively surprised by the NX11.
Steffen Göthling : Now I’m using the NX11 regularly and my little daughter fell in love with it as well!
Through this street art tour in Berlin, Samsung could get a good opportunity to place Samsung’s key messages and to introduce Samsung as one of the leading digital camera companies to social media. Moreover, it was a great time to meet the key online influencers and to establish good relationships with them.
