Samsung unveils mirrorless NX 200 camera

Samsung Electronics Co. on Thursday launched its new camera in NX series in South Korea. The electronics giant hopes to gain further ground in the high-end camera space, largely dominated by its Japanese rivals.

NX200, the newly launched mirrorless camera, is lighter and sleeker than its predecessor and takes faster shots of images without hurting the picture quality, Samsung said in a statement.

Samsung has been very confident about their NX range of cameras that are known for their interchangeable lenses and the mirrorless sensor design.

Samsung isn't the only brand manufacturing these mirrorless cameras, though. Brands such as Olympus and Panasonic have also been selling mirrorless micro four-third cameras, for a while now.

Samsung is the world's third-largest camera manufacturer by market share after Canon Inc.
