Canon R10 vs Nikon 1 AW1 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, its tough to picture the difference in sensor dimensions just by going through a spec sheet. The pic here should offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the R10 and 1 AW1.
As you can see, each of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The R10 with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon R10 will provide greater detail because of its extra 10MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more recent R10 provides a benefit in sensor technology.
