Hasselblad X1D vs Samsung NX1000 Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very difficult to picture the difference between sensor dimensions only by reading through technical specs. The pic here will provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the X1D and NX1000.

As you have seen, both the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The X1D featuring a larger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh simpler and the Hasselblad X1D will give greater detail as a result of its extra 31MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more recent X1D provides an edge with regard to sensor technology.
