Ricoh CX4 vs Samsung NX2000

Here, we will be matching up the Ricoh CX4 and Samsung NX2000, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by companies Ricoh and Samsung. There is a significant difference between the image resolutions of the CX4 (10MP) and NX2000 (20MP) and the CX4 (1/2.3") and NX2000 (APS-C) boast totally different sensor sizes.

The CX4 was manufactured 4 years prior to the NX2000 and that is quite a sizable gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras feature different body design with the Ricoh CX4 being a Compact camera and the Samsung NX2000 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving right into a full comparison, here is a brief view of how the CX4 scores vs the NX2000 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Ricoh CX4 and Samsung NX2000. The entire galleries are viewable at Ricoh CX4 Gallery and Samsung NX2000 Gallery.

If you are looking to lug around your camera frequently, you'll need to factor its weight and dimensions.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you are utilising at that time. Underneath is a front view physical size comparison of the CX4 against the NX2000.

Using size and weight, the portability grade of the CX4 and NX2000 is 92 and 89 respectively.

Generally, it is hard to envision the difference between sensor measurements just by checking technical specs. The photograph below will help give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the CX4 and NX2000.

As you have seen, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The CX4 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the Samsung NX2000 will give greater detail due to its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The older CX4 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
