During the last couple of weeks some of our sources told us that the NX20 announcement would be delayed. Now according to the russian forum forum.ixbt.com said that a Russian Samsung Photo Consultant confirmed the NX200 would be announced in July, but the NX20 would come in January 2012 only!
My guess is that the rumor is correct. I only got info and some specs about the NX200 in these days. As you know the NX200 should be announced within the next 6 days!
Stay tuned!

The only spec I am dying to know is if NX200 has a new sensor?
Yep, 18mpx
This is really great news!
I suspect that NX20 an NX200 were ready at the same time, perhaps Samsung decided to scrap X20 in a fear it wont hold against the nex-7,
so now were gonna get a much better NEX20 in 2012
well they could bring out the nx20 now and in 2012 a nx30 or improved nx20
beginning of 2012 is still a half year away.. thats a long wait…
But the NEX7 would be announced just one month later than NX20, so if Samsung wants measures the NEX7 performance that´s means they are working in something like… that´s good news!!!
I appreciate that delaying the NX20 might mean they’re trying to make a better camera, but I was really hoping to (finally) being able to buy my long-awaited mirrorless by September this year.
Also, if the NX20 is delayed until 2012, what does that mean for the NX1? Will it be released even later in the year than the NX20?
I’m waiting for future models as well, if NX20 would have at least 3mpx EVF and a better sensor then i’m gettin it!
“at least 3mpx EVF”
Keep dreaming, Frosti. I would be grateful for 1,5mil. EVF with higher refresh rate. In the meantime NX200 could be a pleasing photoboxie. Who knows – early we will find it out.
Have you already decided what will be your next camera or are you waiting for what is coming and then pick the best? I presume Samsung will offer better quality/price ration than Sony.
This is disappointing. Will the movie pro 18-200 and 16-80 lens be delayed too now?
Thank you for all your hard work Andrea keep it up!
Which is which again?
Found it — NX200 is the compact, NX20 is the DSLR-like one.
It makes sense that the nx200 will come out first given that it is made for the compact csc market and it had more weaknesses than the nx10, even though it is a good shooter.I dont think though that the nx200 will have a built-in evf just because its competitors like the pens and sony nex dont have an evf. Hopefully they can bump the shooting speeds to at least 5 fps and better noise performance at higher iso’s. One thing they also need to do is make it more streamlined like the ex-1 and include at least a nice rubberized grip.Perhaps a better separate matching evf is along the way too as well? Out of all those things I think for sure they will make the camera a little more smaller and compact in design. Not that the nx100 was a huge camera, my guess is that the nx200 will be a little bit larger or same size as the olympus epl2. i hope though that they dont make it silly-small like the sony nex5. i would also guess that the body will feel more tougher and it could come in 3 colors, black, white and maybe a red. I recently picked up a nx10 for 299 usd and for that price, it is one heck of a camera! You cant beat that combo!
