Samsung GX-10 vs Samsung WB1100F

On this page, we are looking at the Samsung GX-10 versus Samsung WB1100F, former being a Advanced DSLR while the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom and they are both designed by Samsung. There exists a substantial gap among the image resolutions of the GX-10 (10MP) and WB1100F (16MP) and the GX-10 (APS-C) and WB1100F (1/2.3") posses totally different sensor sizes.

The GX-10 was unveiled 8 years earlier than the WB1100F and that is a fairly big difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras have different body design with the Samsung GX-10 being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Samsung WB1100F being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go straight to a in depth comparison, here is a simple summary of how the GX-10 matches up vs the WB1100F in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the GX-10 and WB1100F is 59 and 67 respectively.

More often than not, it's hard to visualise the difference in sensor measurements purely by researching specifications. The graphic below might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the GX-10 and WB1100F.

To sum up, both the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The GX-10 with its larger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Samsung WB1100F will render more detail having an extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics more aggressively. The older GX-10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
