Canon R3 vs Samsung NX10 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it's difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements only by checking technical specs. The graphic here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the R3 and NX10.

As you can tell, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The R3 featuring a bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Canon R3 will resolve greater detail as a result of its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The fresher R3 will have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
