Samsung has just unveiled its second camera-centric device, the Galaxy K Zoom. The device features a 20.7 MP 1/2.3 BSI CMOS camera sensor with 10x optical zoom, Xenon flash and OIS. The K Zoom offers a total of 28 shooting modes and comes with a redesigned camera UI that looks similar to what is offered in the Galaxy S5. In fact, if it weren’t for the retractable zoom lens, one might have easily thought that the K Zoom was a Galaxy S5 mini.
