On this page, we will be contrasting the Panasonic GX9 versus Samsung NX11, one being a Advanced Mirrorless and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by manufacturers Panasonic and Samsung. There exists a crucial gap between the sensor resolutions of the GX9 (20MP) and NX11 (15MP) and the GX9 (Four Thirds) and NX11 (APS-C) have different sensor measurements.

The GX9 was released 7 years later than the NX11 and that is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras have different body design with the Panasonic GX9 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Samsung NX11 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before diving into a more detailed comparison, here is a short summation of how the GX9 grades versus the NX11 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Panasonic Lumix DC-GX9 and Samsung NX11. The complete galleries are available at Panasonic GX9 Gallery and Samsung NX11 Gallery.

Quite often, it can be tough to picture the difference between sensor sizing merely by going over a spec sheet. The photograph underneath may offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the GX9 and NX11.

As you can see, both of those cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The GX9 because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field harder and the Panasonic GX9 will offer extra detail as a result of its extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The younger GX9 should have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
