As you can tell, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Samsung NX10 to give you extra detail as a result of its extra 9 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos much more aggressively. The older GX-1L is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
