The K-01 was brought out 2 years later than the NX10 and that is a fairly big difference as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras feature the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before delving into a more detailed comparison, here is a short highlight of how the K-01 grades versus the NX10 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Pentax K-01 & Samsung NX10. The entire galleries are available at Pentax K-01 Gallery & Samsung NX10 Gallery.

Normally, it is very difficult to imagine the gap in sensor measurements merely by researching specifications. The photograph below will offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the K-01 and NX10.

To sum up, both of those cameras feature the identical sensor size but different megapixels. You can expect to see the Pentax K-01 to render greater detail having its extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics way more aggressively. The more recent K-01 should have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
