Samsung NX11 vs Samsung NX500

Below, we will be analyzing the Samsung NX11 versus Samsung NX500, both Entry-Level Mirrorless digital cameras and they are both built by Samsung. There exists a significant gap between the resolutions of the NX11 (15MP) and NX500 (28MP) but they use the exact same sensor dimensions (APS-C).

The NX11 was unveiled 5 years earlier than the NX500 which is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras come with different body type with the Samsung NX11 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Samsung NX500 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting through a more detailed comparison, below is a quick summary of how the NX11 matches up versus the NX500 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Samsung NX11 and Samsung NX500. The full galleries are viewable at Samsung NX11 Gallery and Samsung NX500 Gallery.

For those who are intending to carry around your camera regularly, you have to factor its weight and dimensions. The Samsung NX11 comes with outside measurements of 123mm x 87mm x 40mm (4.8" x 3.4" x 1.6") along with a weight of 499 grams (1.10 lbs) whilst the Samsung NX500 has dimensions of 120mm x 64mm x 43mm (4.7" x 2.5" x 1.7") and a weight of 287 grams (0.63 lbs).

Take a look at the Samsung NX11 versus Samsung NX500 in the all new Camera with Lens Size Comparison Tool.

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you select during that time. Below is the front view overall size comparison of the NX11 versus the NX500.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the NX11 and NX500 is 80 and 87 respectively.

Quite often, its difficult to picture the difference between sensor sizes merely by checking technical specs. The image here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the NX11 and NX500.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You should count on the Samsung NX500 to give more detail having an extra 13 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged NX11 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
