Samsung NX100 vs Samsung NX1100 Sensor Comparison
Often, it is hard to envision the gap in sensor dimensions only by viewing technical specs. The picture underneath might give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the NX100 and NX1100.
As you can tell, both cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You can count on the Samsung NX1100 to provide you with greater detail using its extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures far more aggressively. The more aged NX100 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
