In this article, we will be analyzing the Panasonic GF7 versus Samsung NX100, both Entry-Level Mirrorless cameras by brands Panasonic and Samsung. The resolution of the GF7 (16MP) and the NX100 (15MP) is relatively comparable but the GF7 (Four Thirds) and NX100 (APS-C) feature totally different sensor sizes.

The GF7 was brought out 4 years later than the NX100 and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving in to a in-depth comparison, below is a short view of how the GF7 scores versus the NX100 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF7 and Samsung NX100. The entire galleries are viewable at Panasonic GF7 Gallery and Samsung NX100 Gallery.

If you're aiming to lug around your camera frequently, you are going to need to think about its weight and volume.

More often than not, it is hard to envision the difference in sensor measurements only by checking out specifications. The photograph here may provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the GF7 and NX100.

Plainly, both of these cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The GF7 due to its smaller sensor will make shooting bokeh harder and the Panasonic GF7 will show greater detail having its extra 1 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures a little more aggressively. The younger GF7 is going to have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
