Vintage Lens Photography with the Samsung NX1

While researching mirrorless digital cameras, I was drawn into the Samsung NX1's orbit by the camera's fresh digital interface; intuitive operational modes; lens adaption possibilities; interval recording and impressive filmic motion imaging. Importantly, many photographer's reviews said the NX1 was a joy to shoot with. This blog will document my intention to become a better 'still' photographer; but the NX1's primary function for me will be digital-film imaging. Feel free to comment.

First Shot - Cityscape

f5 1/250 ISO-100 50mm (CLICK PHOTO TO ENLARGE)

This was the first photograph I took with the Samsung NX1, which I purchased this past May (2016). This is a high-rise shot, taken thru a slider, balcony and out to the cityscape beyond.

After opening the box and updating the firmware (to v1.41), I attached the Samsung's stock 16-50mm lens; switched the camera and lens settings to 'auto', then took this photograph.

Looking at the photograph, I'm drawn to the defined dark foreground in contrast to the soft texture and brightness of the city. This image creates a relaxing feeling for me. A good start!
