Rumours are suggesting that Samsung will announce an NX20 in February, which will then be available from April.
Seemingly another manufacturer that is keen to cash in on the popular retro trend that is currently being displayed by the likes of the Fujifilm X Pro1 and the Olympus PEN E-P3, the Samsung NX20 is said to feature a vintage design.
Other rumoured specs include a 1.8 million pixel electronic viewfinder, full manual control and a swivelling AMOLED display screen.
Sources suggest that the new compact system camera will have the same sensor as the Samsung NX200, but will feature a faster processor and buffer. Two new lenses, a 16-80mm and 12-24mm, are also rumoured to be making their debut at the same time, along with a new flash.
Vintage trend
Samsung recently announced a "retro" version of its NX200 camera that will be available in South Korea, Samsung's home country, only. It seemed like that would be the only announcement to come from Samsung any time soon, as Samsung doesn't have a stand at the upcoming CP+ show in Japan, however, the rumours do suggest that February will be the announcement date.
It could be that Samsung is keen to get a new product out there sooner, rather than later, to compete not only with Fujifilm, but also Olympus which is said to be announcing its OM-D camera in February.
