Let's examine more closely at the Canon R10 and Samsung NX10, both Entry-Level Mirrorless digital cameras by rivals Canon and Samsung. There exists a big gap between the image resolutions of the R10 (24MP) and NX10 (15MP) but they use the same exact sensor measurements (APS-C).

Samsung Releases Faster Versions of EVO MicroSD Cards

The R10 was announced 12 years later than the NX10 and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras offer the identical body type (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before diving through a in depth comparison, below is a simple synopsis of how the R10 matches up versus the NX10 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Canon R10 vs Samsung NX10 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing purely by going over specs. The photograph underneath will help give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the R10 and NX10.

All in all, both of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Canon R10 to offer more detail with its extra 9MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The fresher R10 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
