(FT3) UPDATED Samsung NX-10 launch delay?

Share

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.“

Dc-watch-impress.jp interviewed Mr. Shinobu (Director General in charge of the SLR business – Panasonic)

Share

The google english translation of the interview is really one of the worst we have ever seen. That’s why we post you the most interesting parts:

– “DMC-GF1 is sold out, DMC-GH1 had been a little short period of autumn. We might have a little too conservative production plan. ” -> In fact he is confessing that Panasonic didn’t produce enough Panasonic GF1.

– “…DMC-GF1 White sold more than expected.”

– When asked about the Samsung NX he says “APS-C size sensor is not greater than FourThirds sensor…If you balance the quality and compact body, the FourThirds sensor has its advantage.”

– Asked about future developments he said: “There will be small improvements rather than radical innovations…I think it’s important we continue to be based on improving existing models.” -> Panasonic is not working on a fixed-lens compact camera with FourThirds sensor.

– What are the future key-developments? “Never be satisfied with the status quo. We will improve the quality of the viewfinder, AF speed…the advancement of LSI technology, including the evolution of devices and elements used in LCD panels…”
