Canon R10 vs Sony A3000 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, it can be tough to see the gap in sensor dimensions merely by going through a spec sheet. The image here will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the R10 and A3000.
As you can see, the 2 cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon R10 to show greater detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos more aggressively. The fresher R10 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
