Samsung NX20 vs Samsung WB1100F

Below, we will be comparing the Samsung NX20 vs Samsung WB1100F, former being a Advanced Mirrorless while the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom and both of them are sold by Samsung. There exists a sizable gap among the resolutions of the NX20 (20MP) and WB1100F (16MP) and the NX20 (APS-C) and WB1100F (1/2.3") use different sensor sizes.

The NX20 was manufactured 20 months before the WB1100F which makes the cameras a generation apart from one another. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Samsung NX20 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Samsung WB1100F being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go through a comprehensive comparison, below is a short synopsis of how the NX20 matches up against the WB1100F for portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Samsung NX20 & Samsung WB1100F. The entire galleries are available at Samsung NX20 Gallery & Samsung WB1100F Gallery.

If you're looking to lug around your camera regularly, you are going to need to factor in its weight and volume. The Samsung NX20 has external measurements of 122mm x 90mm x 40mm (4.8" x 3.5" x 1.6") accompanied by a weight of 341 grams (0.75 lbs) and the Samsung WB1100F has sizing of 125mm x 87mm x 96mm (4.9" x 3.4" x 3.8") having a weight of 512 grams (1.13 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you use at that moment. Underneath is the front view over all size comparison of the NX20 and the WB1100F.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability score of the NX20 and WB1100F is 83 and 67 respectively.

Sometimes, it is difficult to picture the contrast in sensor measurements simply by looking through a spec sheet. The visual here might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the NX20 and WB1100F.

Clearly, both of the cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The NX20 because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Samsung NX20 will result in greater detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The older NX20 will be behind in sensor innovation.
