Confirming earlier reports, Samsung have announced the Samsung Galaxy NX which features a mirrorless camera body with interchangable NX mount lens and built-in Android 4G LTE connectivity. Revealed officially at the recent Samsung Premiere 2013 event, the Galaxy NX has a number of impressive tech specs including:
- 20.3MP APS-C sensor
- DRIMe IV Image Signal Processor
- Advanced Hybrid Auto Focus System
- ISO Auto, 100 - 25600
- Shutter Speeds 1/6000sec, 8.6fps
- 4.8-inch LCD Touch (1280 x 720 pixels)
- Supports Camera Studio, 30+ Smart Modes, 4G LTE + 3G, WiFi
- 1.6GHz quad-core processor
- 2GB RAM
- 16GB storage + MicroSD
- 136.5 x 101.2 x 25.7 (37.65) mm | 495g with battery
- 4360 mAh battery
- Android 4.2
In terms of look and feel, the Galaxy NX feels more like a DSLR than the Galaxy Camera ever did. Bigger, bulkier and solid, it feels like a photographer's camera and supports 13 interchangable lenses from the Samsung NX range. The grip is certainly more prominent and the tech specs more fitting with a DSLR. While the tech specs are certainly impressive, we couldn't get any sample images to see how the performance is. No news on pricing or availability just yet but again, this is probably for the upper premium price range.
