Hasselblad X2D vs Samsung NX1000

Lets take a deeper look at the Hasselblad X2D vs Samsung NX1000, one is a Pro Mirrorless and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by rivals Hasselblad and Samsung. There is a big difference between the image resolutions of the X2D (100MP) and NX1000 (20MP) and the X2D (Medium format) and NX1000 (APS-C) provide different sensor dimensions.

The X2D was introduced 10 years after the NX1000 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras have the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before we go into a detailed comparison, here is a short highlight of how the X2D grades against the NX1000 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

For anybody who is intending to travel with your camera, you're going to have to factor in its weight and proportions. The Hasselblad X2D features physical measurements of 149mm x 106mm x 75mm (5.9" x 4.2" x 3.0") and a weight of 895 grams (1.97 lbs) whilst the Samsung NX1000 has measurements of 114mm x 63mm x 37mm (4.5" x 2.5" x 1.5") and a weight of 222 grams (0.49 lbs).

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you are using during that time. The following is a front view size comparison of the X2D and the NX1000.

Using size and weight, the portability rating of the X2D and NX1000 is 56 and 90 respectively.

Generally, its hard to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions merely by reading technical specs. The pic here may offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the X2D and NX1000.

As you can tell, both the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The X2D having a bigger sensor is going to make getting bokeh simpler and the Hasselblad X2D will offer greater detail using its extra 80MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The more recent X2D provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
