Samsung NX10 vs Samsung WB1100F

Here, we will be contrasting the Samsung NX10 and Samsung WB1100F, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom and they are both manufactured by Samsung. The resolution of the NX10 (15MP) and the WB1100F (16MP) is relatively comparable but the NX10 (APS-C) and WB1100F (1/2.3") offer totally different sensor sizing.

The NX10 was brought out 4 years prior to the WB1100F and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of these cameras feature different body design with the Samsung NX10 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Samsung WB1100F being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go straight to a complete comparison, here is a simple summary of how the NX10 grades vs the WB1100F when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Often, it's tough to see the contrast in sensor measurements simply by seeing a spec sheet. The photograph here will help offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the NX10 and WB1100F.

As you can see, the two cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The NX10 featuring a bigger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF easier and the Samsung WB1100F will produce more detail having its extra 1MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs way more aggressively. The older NX10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
