Panasonic L10 vs Samsung NX10

Let's take a deeper look at the Panasonic L10 vs Samsung NX10, one is a Advanced DSLR and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by manufacturers Panasonic and Samsung. There is a big difference between the sensor resolutions of the L10 (10MP) and NX10 (15MP) and the L10 (Four Thirds) and NX10 (APS-C) boast totally different sensor measurements.

The L10 was introduced 3 years before the NX10 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of the cameras have different body design with the Panasonic L10 being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Samsung NX10 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before diving into a step-by-step comparison, here is a simple summation of how the L10 matches up against the NX10 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10 and Samsung NX10. The whole galleries are provided at Panasonic L10 Gallery and Samsung NX10 Gallery.

For anyone who is looking to carry around your camera regularly, you are going to need to consider its weight and measurements. The Panasonic L10 enjoys outside measurements of 135mm x 96mm x 78mm (5.3" x 3.8" x 3.1") and a weight of 556 grams (1.23 lbs) whilst the Samsung NX10 has proportions of 123mm x 87mm x 40mm (4.8" x 3.4" x 1.6") along with a weight of 499 grams (1.10 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you are using at the time. Below is a front view dimensions comparison of the L10 compared to the NX10.

Using size and weight, the portability rating of the L10 and NX10 is 66 and 80 respectively.

Usually, it's difficult to envision the gap between sensor sizes purely by reading through technical specs. The pic below will provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the L10 and NX10.

As you have seen, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The L10 having a tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Samsung NX10 will give extra detail using its extra 5MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged L10 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
