The A810 was introduced 2 years after the FH22 which is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before going straight to a complete comparison, here is a quick synopsis of how the A810 matches up vs the FH22 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Canon PowerShot A810 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH22. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon A810 Gallery and Panasonic FH22 Gallery.

Normally, it can be tough to see the gap between sensor sizes purely by reading through specifications. The pic underneath may provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the A810 and FH22.

Plainly, both of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Canon A810 to give you more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs more aggressively. The more recent A810 will have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
