(FT3) Photorumors has more details about the LX3 successor.

Share

The rumor is from photorumors. We don’t know his source that’s why we post it with a “FT3” value (which means “could be”).

He says “my sources from Asia can only confirm that at least one more, high end, compact camera will be announced with new Lumix G model, but at that point it is not confirmed that it will be the LX4:

Rumored Specs:

* Full manual control
* New and improved image stabilization system
* No RAW mode (? – LX3 did have RAW mode, another reason why this may not be a LX3 replacement). Panasonic may keep the RAW mode only for their GF line.
* GPS
* 720p HD video
* Stereo microphones
* New digital zoom function: Panasonic will unveil also a new technology that will be related to digital zoom and will make it much more useful

First real big Samsung NX-10 review

Share

The korean friendss from SLRclub were the first to leak the NX-10 and now they have made their review of the Samsung NX-10. Once clicked on the link you will probably have to wait a minute before the image is loaded. They posted the review as a unique whole image! That’s why no google english translation is available. But it doesn’t matter, pictures and videos are easy to understand :)

My first thoughts:
Autofocus seems to be really fast but video quality is not as decent as the one from the .

BHphoto listed the Samsung NX-10 with a price of $699.
