Canon G15 vs Kodak Z915 Sensor Comparison
Sometimes, it is hard to visualize the contrast in sensor measurements merely by seeing specs. The photograph underneath will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the G15 and Z915.
As you can plainly see, the two cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The G15 having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon G15 will produce more detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The younger G15 should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
