Epson R-D1x vs Nikon 1 J4

Lets look a bit more in depth at the Epson R-D1x vs Nikon 1 J4, one being a Advanced Mirrorless and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by rivals Epson and Nikon. There exists a crucial gap among the sensor resolutions of the R-D1x (6MP) and 1 J4 (18MP) and the R-D1x (APS-C) and 1 J4 (1") provide different sensor sizing.

The R-D1x was introduced 6 years before the 1 J4 and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving straight to a detailed comparison, here is a quick introduction of how the R-D1x scores versus the 1 J4 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Epson R-D1x and Nikon 1 J4. The whole galleries are viewable at Epson R-D1x Gallery and Nikon 1 J4 Gallery.

In case you're intending to carry your camera regularly, you will have to think about its weight and volume. The Epson R-D1x comes with outside measurements of 142mm x 89mm x 40mm (5.6" x 3.5" x 1.6") having a weight of 620 grams (1.37 lbs) and the Nikon 1 J4 has sizing of 100mm x 60mm x 29mm (3.9" x 2.4" x 1.1") and a weight of 232 grams (0.51 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you have chosen at that moment. Underneath is a front view measurements comparison of the R-D1x versus the 1 J4.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the R-D1x and 1 J4 is 75 and 92 respectively.

Normally, it can be hard to picture the gap in sensor sizing just by going through specs. The graphic here should offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the R-D1x and 1 J4.

All in all, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The R-D1x with its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Nikon 1 J4 will show more detail using its extra 12MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The older R-D1x will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
