Photography Glossary

The G7 X MIII was manufactured 4 years later than the D-Lux Typ 109 and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Large Sensor Compact).

Before we go into a thorough comparison, here is a concise synopsis of how the G7 X MIII scores versus the D-Lux Typ 109 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III and Leica D-Lux Typ 109. The entire galleries are provided at Canon G7 X MIII Gallery and Leica D-Lux Typ 109 Gallery.

Generally, it can be tough to visualize the difference in sensor sizing purely by checking out a spec sheet. The photograph below may provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the G7 X MIII and D-Lux Typ 109.

Clearly, the two cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The G7 X MIII due to its smaller sensor is going to make getting bokeh more challenging and the Canon G7 X MIII will show more detail due to its extra 7MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop images more aggressively. The more recent G7 X MIII provides a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
