Let's look a bit more closely at the Canon M6 vs Leica CL, both Advanced Mirrorless digital cameras by manufacturers Canon and Leica. The sensor resolution of the M6 (24MP) and the CL (24MP) is pretty well matched and both cameras boast the same sensor size (APS-C).

The M6 was introduced 9 months earlier than the CL which means that they are both of a similar generation. Each of the cameras have the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving into a more detailed comparison, here is a brief summation of how the M6 scores against the CL in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ depending on the lens you are utilising at that moment. Here is a front view overall size comparison of the M6 versus the CL.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the M6 and CL is 84 and 82 respectively.

More often than not, its difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor measurements only by reading through specs. The visual below will help give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the M6 and CL.

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras provide the same sensor dimensions and the identical MP therefore you should expect similar quality of photos but you should really consider the release date of the products into consideration. The older M6 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
