Canon A2200 vs Leica C Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is hard to visualize the difference between sensor sizing purely by checking technical specs. The photograph below might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the A2200 and C.

As you have seen, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The A2200 because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF harder and the Canon A2200 will resolve more detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older A2200 is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
