Canon M100 has a
24.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features DIGIC 7 processor. On the other hand, Samsung NX3000 has a
20.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the M100 and NX3000 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon M100 and Samsung NX3000 Cameras
As seen above, Samsung NX3000 has a 1.1x Larger sensor area than Canon M100. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon M100
or the
Samsung NX3000 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
