Samsung HZ35W vs Samsung NX10 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizes only by viewing a spec sheet. The pic underneath might offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the HZ35W and NX10.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The HZ35W using its smaller sensor will make getting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Samsung NX10 will provide you with extra detail using its extra 3 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a bit more aggressively.
