Canon R10 vs Panasonic G5 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
In many cases, it is very difficult to imagine the gap in sensor measurements merely by going through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the R10 and G5.
As you can see, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The R10 because of its larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon R10 will provide extra detail having its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The newer R10 should have a benefit in sensor technology.
