Canon SX730 HS vs Leica V-Lux 30

Here, we will be contrasting the Canon SX730 HS versus Leica V-Lux 30, both Small Sensor Superzoom digital cameras by competitors Canon and Leica. There is a huge difference between the image resolutions of the SX730 HS (20.3MP) and V-Lux 30 (14MP) but both cameras offer the identical sensor sizing (1/2.3").

The SX730 HS was brought out 5 years later than the V-Lux 30 and that is quite a significant gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before getting straight to a thorough comparison, here is a short overview of how the SX730 HS scores against the V-Lux 30 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon PowerShot SX730 HS and Leica V-Lux 30. The entire galleries are viewable at Canon SX730 HS Gallery and Leica V-Lux 30 Gallery.

For anyone who is aiming to carry your camera often, you will need to take into account its weight and proportions.

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you have attached at that moment. Here is a front view overall size comparison of the SX730 HS vs the V-Lux 30.

Considering size and weight, the portability grade of the SX730 HS and V-Lux 30 is 88 and 90 respectively.

Oftentimes, its tough to envision the contrast between sensor sizing purely by going over a spec sheet. The visual below might give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the SX730 HS and V-Lux 30.

Clearly, both of those cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon SX730 HS to deliver extra detail having its extra 6.3MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The fresher SX730 HS is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
