Pentax and Samsung has joined force to develop a new digital SLR camera that, according to rumor, based on the Pentax *istDL digital camera. Named Samsung GX1, there’s not much information and detail specifications about this yet. But Pentax’s expertise in high-performance interchangeable lenses and Samsung’s global market presence and increasing brand awareness would probably guarantee the success for Samsung GX1 digital camera.

Pentax *istDL digital camera itself features a 6.1 megapixels, 2.5-inch color LCD monitor, and compatibility with most interchangeable Pentax lenses. Measures 125 x 93 x 67 mm and weighs 470 g, it comes with 12x digital zoom and SD card slot. Well, now you might probably get a little hint on what Samsung GX1 would be.
