Digital camera Samsung NX10

Synopsis: Halfway between compact and SLR cameras will be the Samsung NX10.

First I understand nothing that this is only an apparent “leak” (until the photo is “filtered”) occurred in Samsung, therefore there is no way to know how this information might be truthful.

It appears that this Samsung NX10 is a kind of evolution of what has been called bridge cameras (1), ie it is a digital camera halfway between compact and SLR (also called DSLR) with the Samsung aims to compete with the system micro 4 / 3 Panasonic and Olympus, giving you a chamber of dimensions close to those of a compact, but with the possibility of exchanging goals.

It is said that only an optical viewfinder would lack internal mirror for a DSLR, then have a 18-55 mm zoom and a 30mm fixed lens. Includes a CMOS sensor (2) of APS-C (3) 14.6 Mega pixels, video recording capability in high definition, optical stabilizer supplied by the goals, bursts of 7 fps (4) and electronic viewfinder 1.4 Megapixel .

I have no idea of its price or when it might exit the market, but estimates it could be earlier this year.
