Fake?... probably.

But look like a NEX3/5 nemesis...

Art Vandelay II · 08-23-2010, 06:23 AM

Just pick up an NEX3 if you want a P&S with interchangeable lenses. After testing it out for 10 mins I was ready to throw it across the store. It would be a great camera for someone that doesn't even know what ISO is and always shoots on auto mode, but for those of us that shoot in manual mode all the time; what a nightmare.

I guess Sony and Samsung think these dumbed down models will sell well; and they're probably right, but give me something with a Ricoh GR body/design/controls any day of the week.

There are actual in-the-wild photos out there of Samsung's rangefinder style NX camera, it don't look like that.

Also, not a pentax rumor.

I'd rather get a real WR Pentax EVIL.

Doesn't look like a Pentax to me. If you'd like to further discuss this, please visit Mirrorless Camera Forums Home .

Moved to off-brand.

First of all, let me express my irritation that a poster was invited to redo his post in another forum.

As for the photo posted above, I'm not sure it is real.

Below is a leaked NX advertizement and a lady holding the camera in the wild. It clearly is the same camera (the white one). It has four body characteristics in common and therefore this cannot be by accident.

That was the photo I was referring to! It definitely looks the same as the one in that advert, and will be an interesting addition. The first NX seem to have missed the mark, but if they offer up a few more interesting lenses and a more compact body like the above photos would indicate, they could definitely grab some market share.

Juu - I am with you on that one!
