Canon R10 vs Olympus E-M5 II Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it is very hard to visualize the difference between sensor dimensions merely by reading a spec sheet. The image underneath might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the R10 and E-M5 II.
Clearly, both of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The R10 with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field simpler and the Canon R10 will offer more detail with its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The newer R10 provides an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
