Canon R10 vs Nikon Z8 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it is hard to see the difference between sensor dimensions simply by going over specifications. The picture underneath may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the R10 and Z8.
Plainly, both of these cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The R10 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Nikon Z8 will offer you greater detail as a result of its extra 22MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged R10 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
