Canon D10 vs Panasonic FX700 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is difficult to see the difference between sensor sizes simply by reading through a spec sheet. The image here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the D10 and FX700.

Clearly, both the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Panasonic FX700 to give extra detail with its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos much more aggressively. The more aged D10 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
