Samsung NX210 vs Sony HX350

Lets look a little more in depth at the Samsung NX210 and Sony HX350, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom by brands Samsung and Sony. The resolution of the NX210 (20MP) and the HX350 (20MP) is fairly close but the NX210 (APS-C) and HX350 (1/2.3") offer totally different sensor measurements.

The NX210 was introduced 5 years before the HX350 and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras have different body design with the Samsung NX210 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Sony HX350 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before getting into a in depth comparison, here is a concise synopsis of how the NX210 scores vs the HX350 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Samsung NX210 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX350. The whole galleries are available at Samsung NX210 Gallery and Sony HX350 Gallery.

If you are planning to carry your camera, you'll need to factor in its weight and measurements.

Typically, it is very hard to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing just by looking through a spec sheet. The visual underneath will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the NX210 and HX350.

As you can see, each of the cameras have the same megapixels but not the same sensor sizing. The NX210 contains the larger sensor which should make achieving bokeh easier. The older NX210 will be behind in sensor tech.
