Seems like there's a new EVIL (Electronic Viewfinder, Interchangeable Lanes) camera out from Samsung.

Looks like a competitor to the u4/3. Larger sensor (APS-C), Fast Contrast Detect AF (most likely with lens support similar to the Panasonics), Electronic Viewfinder, OLED Display, Interchangeable Lens, Full-Time Live View (no more mirror setup).

Samsung NX 10 (http://www.dpreview.com/previews/samsungnx10/page2.asp)

When do you guys think Canon will get rid of the G series and and bring out an EVIL camera?

Looks interesting. Should be a big seller in Korea.

G11 just came out. They won't be killing it off soon. They MAY bring out ANOTHER model and keep the G series intact.

That's cool. Do we need yet another lens mount? Maybe they can try to get Canon or Nikon to adapt the NX mount...

EDIT:

Here's more detailed info:

Looks like you can adapt old lenses to it - which would be its saving grace.

Imagine Zeiss lenses on that thing!!!
