Now, I can’t attest to the legitimacy of this spec list leaked by PhotoRumors, but let’s take a gander at what the GX-30 is purportedly equipped with. Assuming you understand the relationship that Samsung has with Pentax then one would assume that the GX-30 is simply a clone of the recently announced K-7. But is the GX-30 just that? A clone?
The basic specs appear to be the same as the K-7, but it differs in the inclusion of two SD/SDHC memory card slots and built-in GPS. The AMOLED screen means nothing since Samsung is heavy into the screen technology these days.
