Casio EX-10 vs Sigma DP2s

The following is a extensive review of the Casio EX-10 versus Sigma DP2s, former is a Small Sensor Compact while the other is a Large Sensor Compact by rivals Casio and Sigma. There exists a considerable gap among the resolutions of the EX-10 (12MP) and DP2s (5MP) and the EX-10 (1/1.7") and DP2s (APS-C) feature different sensor sizes.

The EX-10 was announced 3 years after the DP2s which is a fairly large difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Casio EX-10 being a Compact camera and the Sigma DP2s being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before delving through a in depth comparison, below is a quick highlight of how the EX-10 grades against the DP2s in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Casio Exilim EX-10 & Sigma DP2s. The whole galleries are available at Casio EX-10 Gallery & Sigma DP2s Gallery.

For those who are intending to travel with your camera often, you should factor in its weight and dimensions. The Casio EX-10 enjoys external dimensions of 120mm x 68mm x 49mm (4.7" x 2.7" x 1.9") having a weight of 384 grams (0.85 lbs) and the Sigma DP2s has dimensions of 113mm x 60mm x 56mm (4.4" x 2.4" x 2.2") accompanied by a weight of 280 grams (0.62 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an ILC will differ dependant on the lens you have at that time. Underneath is the front view proportions comparison of the EX-10 compared to the DP2s.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability score of the EX-10 and DP2s is 83 and 86 respectively.

Normally, it is tough to picture the gap in sensor dimensions just by looking through technical specs. The pic underneath might provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-10 and DP2s.

As you have seen, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The EX-10 using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting bokeh trickier and the Casio EX-10 will render more detail with its extra 7MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more recent EX-10 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
