New info about the upcoming new Samsung NX20 (Wifi Direct, better High ISO)

That takes long! The NX20 has been leaked here and there for months now. But now we are really close to the announcement and one of my top sources just sent me a list of info about the camera. Here it is:

The max shutter speed is 1/8000 and 8fps (full resolution), just like some medium level DSLR.
It definitely has a better buffer and processor.
WiFi connection is a WiFi Direct, so it can be connected to any WiFi Direct device like tablet, smartphone, TV or laptop without a router or internet.
It has a mode C (custom) on the main dial.
The first shutter curtain is a electronic one, in that way the shutter lag is almost imperceptible.
ISO 100 – 12800 with a excellent response at ISO 6400, I would say a little better than NEX7.
The EVF is excellent, I have been trying the NX20 and NEX7 and they look very similar in size and quality.
The Body is a little heavier and with more volume than NX10, I tried it with the 60mm Macro lens and the balance is much better than NX10.
The final camera could have an external mic jack, HDMI and USB ports and any other changes.
My conclusion is this camera has many thing of a medium level DSLR but in a smaller body…

Samsung is facing a tuff time with their NX system. They have some great lenses and some super technology. Their main problems are the no-name in the camera history and the average sensor quality. I hope the NX20 can at least get rid of the last “problem”. Better than NEX-7 sounds good! :)
