Canon R10 vs Panasonic GF8 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, it's difficult to envision the contrast between sensor sizes merely by checking a spec sheet. The image below may give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the R10 and GF8.
Clearly, both cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The R10 using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon R10 will give you more detail having an extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots a bit more aggressively. The newer R10 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
