Below is a in depth review of the Samsung WB150F vs Sony A7 III, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the latter is a Pro Mirrorless by brands Samsung and Sony. There exists a crucial gap between the resolutions of the WB150F (14MP) and A7 III (24MP) and the WB150F (1/2.3") and A7 III (Full frame) use totally different sensor measurements.

The WB150F was introduced 7 years before the A7 III and that is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras come with different body type with the Samsung WB150F being a Compact camera and the Sony A7 III being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before going straight into a comprehensive comparison, below is a brief synopsis of how the WB150F grades against the A7 III when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Quite often, it is difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements just by going over a spec sheet. The photograph underneath should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the WB150F and A7 III.

As you can see, each of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The WB150F with its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field harder and the Sony A7 III will offer extra detail using its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older WB150F is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
