Samsung NX11, anyone? I just purchased one as my carry-around with the 18-55 kit zoom and the 30mm f2 pancake for available light work. It has a K-mount adapter, a bit expensive, but allows the use of Pentax lenses in A or M exposure mode and manual focus. The NX11 has a neat feature in manual focus where it enlarges the centre portion for focusing and then reverts to the normal view. Unfortunately this feature, from what I have read, does not work with the adapter.

NX-20 should be announced next week. We will see how much Samsung has improved.

Two new images of the Fuji X-Pro 1 camera | Photo Rumors

Fuji looks like they are headed in the right direction. Hope Pentax is not asleep at the wheel.

Notice the aperture ring on the lens..... The shutter speed dial......

Who is going to buy an all manual camera? It needs a touch screen and to bury all the controls deep in a complex menu system.
