User Redcrow from dpreview (who has provided some valid info in the past) just wrote about two new Samsung cameras that will be shown @ PMA:
New WB1000 successor
- New BSI image sensor (CMOS)
- Full HD video recording
- Sweep panorama feature loaded
A higher line camera (than WB series)
- New 1/1.8" CMOS sensor
- 24mm, 3x optical zoom. f1.8 lens
- Swivel rear screen
- It is the one I expected as LX3 killer
The WB1000 successor will be called WB2000 - it was previously leaked on Amazon.

need to have f/1.4 to kill lx3
The LX3 is f/2.0-2.8
“Swivel real screen”
Rear?
“Swivel rear screen”
it won’t be able to kill the LX3 if it’s dimensions are any larger.
