Re: Thanks For Your Comments

NX Mini is a great camera. I like using it with my C mount lenses. With a $40 adapter from Ramir73 on Ebay(to bypass the no lens error), I was able to use old and new C mount lenses Angenieux/Navitar/Navitron/ 25mm f0.95 as well as other no name Chinese lenses like 50/1.4 and 25/1.4. It really is a great camera which surpasses even some MFTs.

The only other camera with a 1" sensor is the Nikon 1 which I also have (J5) and they are comparable. To use C lenses on N1 you also need to buy a chipped sensor from Ebay seller from Russia though it is only to get AE/Magnification tool/Focus confirmation dot. I like N1 because you can use a flash in manual.  Nikon also makes a more readily available smart adapter for 100-200$ to use F mount lenses. NX Mini has a Mini to NX adapter.
