Casio EX-FC150 vs Leica C Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it's difficult to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions simply by viewing a spec sheet. The picture here may provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-FC150 and C.

Clearly, both the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The EX-FC150 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field harder and the Leica C will render extra detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-FC150 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
