Samsung Galaxy NX vs Sony T99

Its time to look a little more closely at the Samsung Galaxy NX and Sony T99, one is a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the other is a Ultracompact by rivals Samsung and Sony. There exists a big gap between the sensor resolutions of the Galaxy NX (20MP) and T99 (14MP) and the Galaxy NX (APS-C) and T99 (1/2.3") enjoy different sensor measurements.

The Galaxy NX was announced 2 years after the T99 which is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras come with different body type with the Samsung Galaxy NX being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony T99 being a Ultracompact camera.

Before going straight into a in depth comparison, below is a concise highlight of how the Galaxy NX grades versus the T99 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Samsung Galaxy NX and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T99. The whole galleries are available at Samsung Galaxy NX Gallery and Sony T99 Gallery.

If you are looking to travel with your camera often, you're going to have to think about its weight and measurements.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you use at that time. Below is the front view measurement comparison of the Galaxy NX versus the T99.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability score of the Galaxy NX and T99 is 82 and 96 respectively.

More often than not, it is very hard to picture the gap between sensor dimensions merely by going over technical specs. The picture below might offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Galaxy NX and T99.

As you have seen, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Galaxy NX having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the Samsung Galaxy NX will offer you extra detail with its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more recent Galaxy NX should have an advantage in sensor tech.
