Canon 90D vs Leica M10 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it can be difficult to picture the contrast between sensor sizing just by checking technical specs. The graphic here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 90D and M10.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 90D with its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more challenging and the Canon 90D will resolve greater detail with its extra 9MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots much more aggressively. The newer 90D should have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
