Could you use the camera's built-in flash to trigger an external one with a slave trigger?

Essentially the flash will not work outside of their 3 lenses and/or Mini to NX adapter with their Samsung lenses. I have the two common lenses 9 and 9-27 however they are quite slow so I was trying to make use of very compact c mount lenses with fast aperture of 0.95-1.4.

The NX Mini only has an electronic shutter (not a mechanical focal plane or leaf type), doesn't it? That may be related to this problem, and I remember something similar happening with the Pentax Q series...
