Canon R10 vs Sony NEX-F3 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it is tough to envision the gap in sensor dimensions simply by checking out a spec sheet. The pic below might offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the R10 and NEX-F3.
As you can see, both of those cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Canon R10 to show extra detail having its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics far more aggressively. The newer R10 is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
