Samsung GX-20, namely the Samsung GX-30 DSLR, (potentially) has to offer
in terms of features and specifications these leaked details (which
remain wholly unconfirmed) may, or may not, offer a tantalising glimpse
as to what the GX-30 will bring to the table though, for the time being
at least, Samsung are remaining extremely tight-lipped. Still, if the
below details transpire to ring true there's no doubt that the GX-30 is
going to cause a considerable stir in the DSLR world.
According to PhotoRumors, who do not offer any insight as to their
source, the Samsung GX-30 DSLR's features and specifications are as
follows (apologies for the rough and ready formatting):

Admittedly, the above details are a little chaotic in terms of order,
but, if these specifications are indeed a true reflection as to what the
Samsung GX-30 is set to offer there's much to get excited about - with
the use of an AMOLED display and inbuilt GPS functionality being two
especially interesting features.
We await official word from Samsung before we get too excited but we
would not be in the least surprised if the above is indeed wholly
credible - in which case, as far as we're concerned, Samsung have a
potential winner on their hands.
I had better start saving (and being especially nice to her indoors) again.
