Just when you thought it'd be a week devoid of notable announcements
-- what, with CES less than a week away -- along comes Samsung with
two new cameras. The first one is an upgrade to the mirrorless NX10,
naturally called the NX11, that boasts a change in grip design and
compatibility with the i-Function lens found on the NX100. The other
nitty-gritty details for the 14.6 megapixel shooter: a 3-inch AMOLED
LCD screen, VGA viewfinder, 720p 30fps HD recording, and an APS-C
sensor. Price and date? $649 with a bundled 18-55mm zoom lens,
available in February.

In smaller news -- volumetrically, at least -- the 16 megapixel
Samsung WB700 sports a 24x zoom (that's 18x optical and 1.3x smart
zoom), a 24mm ultra-wide Schneider Kreuznach lens, CCD sensor, and
1080p HD video. You're gonna have to wait a little bit longer for that
one -- April, to be more specific -- for a penny under $300. Press
releases are after the break, and we'll get you the pictures as soon
as Sammy sends 'em.

Update: We found the pictures!
