Title: Samsung GX-20
Pros: Strong colours; Easy to use; Robust build; Impressive image quality
Cons: Dodgy Lens kit; Limited feature set; Bulky
Verdict: A pity, because that's one of the K20D's strong points. The list of picture styles on the GX20 is shorter and, surprisingly, there seems to be no Mono mode - on the K20D, you can shoot in black and white and apply different 'digital filters' to simulate a
Summary: The GX20 is a tough, solid camera that here and there feels a bit cruder than you might be expecting in a modern DSLR

Summary: An inexpensive, consumer-level digital SLR, the GX-10 captures well-exposed images, but our test shots weren't very sharp.

Title: Camera doppelgangers: Samsung GX-10
Pros: Excellent photo quality; well-designed and solidly built body; premium features for its price class; nice kit lens.
Cons: Occasional autofocus hunting; Optical Picture Stabilization only buys you about a stop.
Summary: Despite a great feature set for the price, pro-level customization, and excellent photo quality, we can't think of a single reason to buy the Samsung GX-10 over its Pentax-made twin, the K10D.
