Clearly, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The GX-1S using its bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field simpler and the Samsung WB1100F will result in greater detail because of its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots far more aggressively. The more aged GX-1S will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
