Canon 20D vs Samsung GX-10 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing merely by seeing specifications. The photograph here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 20D and GX-10.

To sum up, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Samsung GX-10 to show extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older 20D will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
