Samsung mentions GX-20 dSLR successor

Talk about fast! Even before the GX-20 dSLR camera is on the shelves, Samsung had told us that we can expect to see its successor soon.

The GX-20 dSLR has just been showcased in Singapore.

The GX-20 is strategically marketed against the big boys, like the Canon EOS 40D, and its successor is expected to be seen in the same light. Michael Min, general manager of the Digital Still Camera division for Samsung in Southeast Asia, told Crave Asia that the new model will be showcased at Photokina in Germany later this year. The specifications for the yet unnamed dSLR are unknown, but we guess it will be more souped-up than the GX-20.

To add on to the current lineup of eight dSLR lenses from Samsung, Min also mentioned that users can expect six more optics from the Korean company. The launch dates for these lenses are unconfirmed, but Min said we will be able to catch a glimpse of it at Photokina.
