Samsung Announces NX200; Digital Photography Review has a Preview

"The Samsung NX200 is the company's fifth NX camera but only the third body design, and represents a significant step up for the series. It's built around a completely new 20.3MP APS-C CMOS sensor and wrapped in the series' first all-metal body. The result is a handsome camera of similar size to Sony's NEX models but one that takes a rather different approach."

Samsung has launched its 5th NX camera, the NX200, which is the successor to the NX100. The improvements are in a new 20 megapixel sensor of the APS-C size, a beefier magnesium alloy body, and an upped ISO range to ISO 12,800. Other niceties include 1080p video at 30FPS, and the ability to have full manual control while taking videos, and recording at a variety of speeds, from 0.25x to 20x. The camera is a bit smaller than the NX100 as well. The LCD is still a nice 3" AMOLED screen, though of the PenTile variety. I wonder though, if Samsung is going to have any success; its past few NX cameras have been a little underwhelming in terms of image quality, and there has not been any other unique hook to it. Upping the pixel count and making the body smaller isn't going to be enough Samsung; your old enemy Sony has done that already. Hit the link for the preview.
