Canon R10 vs Leica SL2 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it can be tough to envision the contrast in sensor measurements only by looking through specs. The visual underneath should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the R10 and SL2.
All in all, both cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The R10 due to its smaller sensor will make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Leica SL2 will result in greater detail as a result of its extra 23 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more recent R10 will have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
