Samsung NX Mini unboxing.

Our new vlogging camera arrived yesterday so I thought I would do a little unboxing blog post for you all.
We ordered the Samsung NX Mini due to budget constraints we had. I think we have great camera for our vlogging needs and we can not wait to start using it.
The Samsung NX Mini is available here from Amazon for just £188.88 Samsung NX Mini Camera - White (9mm Lens Kit, 20.5MP) 3 inch LCD

This camera comes in black, white, brown, pink or mint green.


On with the unboxing......

First up a simple picture of the box as it came.


You get all the usual manuals and quick start guides and you also get a full version of Adobe Lightroom 5 which is an amazing addition to this camera and great for editing photos and another reason for our purchase.


Here you can see everything came packaged well in the box.


On the right of the box was the usb wall charger, battery and wrist strap. One thing to note here is you can only charge the battery in camera but it looks like a phone battery so will be easy to pick up a second battery to have with you. Both the wall plug and the usb lead are of great quality.


Here you can see the lens that came with the camera. We opted for the 9mm lens as it will only be used for vlogging as we have another camera for photos so felt we did not need the zoom lens and the added bulk of that lens.


Here is the camera straight out the box. The white looks great in my opinion and this camera is small, really small.


Here is the top of the camera, you can see how slim this camera is, perfect to fit in your pocket.


On the right side of the camera is where that battery sits along with the micro usb charging point, mini hdmi port and the micro sd card slot. This is one thing to consider with this camera is it does not use the normal size sd cards rather micro sd you use in your phone.


Again you can see how slim this camera is even with the 9mm lens attached. 



Here you can see the back of the camera with a 3 inch touch screen with a 460,000 dot resolution. It has a dedicated video button right where your thumb rests which is perfect plus the navigation buttons below but everything can be done via the touch screen if needed.


Here is the final picture of the camera with the lens on and as you can see the screen flips up 180 degrees, perfect for vlogging and selfies. 


Hope you enjoyed the simple unboxing post. Leave a comment below with your thoughts on this camera or what camera you use to vlog with.

Getting excited for the new vlogging camera.

It is Friday woop woop!

Not long till we pick my son up which is amazing, going to be a good weekend. Lego and Top Trumps will be the order of the weekend and we are going out for a meal Saturday evening with some friends at the Subhouse in Wells.

Excited about the new vlogging camera that will be here when Franki gets home from work.

We decided on the Samsung NX Mini as it fits us perfectly. The only thing that lets it down in my opinion is the resolution of the screen. At 460,000 dots it is not great and coming from my Panasonic G6 i will certainly notice the difference but I feel that the other parts of the camera certainly make up for it including the fact the screen flips up 180 degrees, perfect for making sure you are in the frame.

We opted for the 9mm lens rather than the zoom lens they do as this will only be being used for vlogging rather than picture taking due to our other camera.

It is available here Samsung NX Mini Camera from Amazon for £188.88.

I am certainly tempted with the 17mm lens they do as the aperture is a lot lower than the 9mm one but the price is putting me off some what.

I will sign off now but we will be seeing you over the weekend.

I made it home!

Wow i actually made it home from work today. Feels so good to be home. Sat here playing with the blog waiting for Franki to come home while playing with our two Bengal's.

Having a shower at home after 3 days on the road feels so good. Took an extra long one just for the fun of it. So nice.

So close to the weekend now. What do you have planned?

Ross & Franki

Work sucks.....

Morning all,

So here i am (Ross) sat in a truck, not my truck for the third day running without being home. Not a happy bunny or woof today.
So want to see my bunny in is unreal, hoping tonight is the night. Need some love!
If i was in my own truck i would not worry as i have all the kit but as i am not i only have the bear minimum to get me through one night away so here we are on two nights and three days and you can imagine how i feel.
On a happier note it is nearly the weekend everyone, a day and a bit to go or two days for some.
We have my little boy this weekend which is exciting, really don't get to see him enough with the job i have.  Nothing planned so a weekend of lego building and reading i think and maybe a film but which film?
Franki had her yearly appraisal this week and smashed it which is amazing news but i will let her tell you about that over the weekend.
Blog and Youtube side of things we are nearly there. Going to spend some time tonight on the blog getting that right for us and then on to planning the channel intro video and then we can get started on the videos and vlogging.
Hoping we can order our new vlogging camera this weekend, Samsung NX Mini.

What camera do you use to vlog?

What are your plans for the weekend?

Bunnywoof art completed.

As you can see if you are reading this we managed to get the Bunnywoof art sorted on the top of the blog last night.
This has now also been put on all our social media although i need to do a bit of re sizing in places but we are getting there.
Hopefully I will be home tonight to start adding bits to the blog like our Instagram, Facebook, Youtube and Twitter but so far so good.

Please do leave a comment below if you are liking how it is all coming together or even if you don't any improvments that could be made.

Just a little update.

Hi everyone,

Our journey continues, slowly but we are getting there.
Last week i finally got around to designing some channel art for our new Youtube channel. I thought it looked pretty dam good but Franki has her reservations but we are rolling with it for now and as the channel moves forward we will come up with some ideas that suit us.
I have now put this across our social meadia and the next project is to set up this blog properly and sort out links to everything so you can all find us nice and easy where ever you are and then onto the videos.

Hoping the next post will be sometime towards the end of this week with some updates for you all.

Our Journey begins....

So our Bunnywoof journey begins.

Hi i am Ross and this is Franki with an i. Why with an i you ask? I will let Franki explain that at a later date in a rant video but lets just say it makes her mad.

Today is the 1st post in the journal for me and our first post ever as Bunnywoof.
I am hoping to be able to get these up on our blog on a daily basis or at least every 2 days from one of us.

So what or who is Bunnywoof?
Well i am Woof and Franki is Bunny, these are nicknames that we have for eachother that we thought we would incorperate into our new hobby blogging and vlogging.
We have started a new channel on Youtube which we will be uploading to over the coming months with just random videos from us being crazy and believe me together we are mad as hatters to reviews of products that we have bought and love to just random stuff we find and like.
A kind of all in one channel with us, our family and everything we love doing and enjoy.

I will sign off now as this is our first post and wanted to keep it short but be on the look out for our first video on our channel Bunnywoof and our daily posts on our blog.

Ross and Franki.
