(FT3) UPDATED Samsung NX-10 launch delay?

Samsung_NX_10
Latest rumors do say that the Samsung NX-10 could be announced a little later than expected (final announcement on January 10?). The camera was expected to be announced in December. Let’s see what happens!

UPDATE:

Source: redcrow (dpreview forum)

I got more updates of NX10.

1. Samsung will start teaser ad. in next week in Korea.
2. Samsung will announce AND launch NX10 in next several weeks.
NX10 will be launched into the world market at the same time.

3. Some NX10s have been delivered / will be delivered to camera review websites/magazines.
They are asked to zip their lips until the official announcement.
4. Samsung keep working on stabilizing the firmware.

NX10 has an interesting feature.

It has burst mode. (Up to 30 shots with 7 fps). It seems to be similar feature with K20D’s, I guess. But I didn’t hear how it works.

(FT5) Panasonic is ready to launch the new DMC-FP1…(FT3) with backlight sensor?

We have no specs about that camera, but we know that a new DMC-FP1 compact camera is coming soon (January?). Why should that camera be interesting? The camera (FT3) could be the first to use the new Panasonic backlight sensor!

Travis sent us this video with folowing message:
This is a rock climbing video I shot entirely with the GF1 and 20mm pancake this weekend. It was shot in full manual focus mode without any Image Stabilization. I think this really shows the potential of the GF1 and the 20mm pancake lens as video devices.
Check out the clip starting at 50 seconds it was with the 2x digital zoom. It was actually usable.
