Samsung will announce a new camcorder in few hours. There were rumors about a NX-mount camcorder so maybe this will be the first NX-camcorder…
UPDATE: No NX camcorder. Samsung just unveiled the HMX-T10 HD Camcorder

OGL posted first info about the upcoming Pentax K-5 and K-r. Just a reminder: OGL is a very known pentaxforum user and he seems to have good rumor “sources”. There is a fair chance that those info are correct.
PENTAX K-5:
- 16 million pixels (SONY new sensor)
- ISO 25600
- 7 frames per sec
- ¥ 139,000 (too high price – $1625 
)
- announcement on September 20
- Released in mid-October
PENTAX KR:
- 12 million pixels
- 6 frames per sec
- 10 color of body and 12 color grip, as the combination 120 colours
- 74,800 yen ($875)
- Released in mid-October
One of our sources and readers made a low reolution size comparison of the two lenses based on the 20-50mm size he knows. The 20-50mm is very compact compared to the actual 18-55mm lens!
UPDATE: Dpnet posted this old rendering (it is not a real Pentax mirrorless camera). The specs are more or less a mix of speculations and rumors:
* The new APS-C frame 14 million pixel sensor
* Body image stabilization, the first SR with APS-C single power
* Flip-type LCD viewfinder screen
* HD video capture features, specific unknown

------------------------------Finally Photoscala revealed the truth. The Samsung-Alpa-Schneider medium format deal is FAKE. Nobody knows who created the fake rumor and why…(would be interesting to know it!)

“Pentax is investigating the possibility of launching a Micro Four Thirds-style camera, to compete against the likes of Olympus and Panasonic.” via: amateur photographer Many companies like Samsung Nikon Canon and Sony are working on mirrorless camera systems so it comes with no surprise that Pentax will join the adventure
via amateur photgrapher: “Lenses fitted to the cameras have a one switch for AF/MF while a further switch marked On/Off appears to activate a stabilization system with-in the optical construction.“
AmateurPhotographer reported that the previously rumored Samsung GX30 will not be released (at least for now) because Samsung is concentrating on the NX series. via: photorumors.com
