Casio EX-FC150 vs Leica M-E Typ 220

Below, we will be looking at the Casio EX-FC150 versus Leica M-E Typ 220, one being a Small Sensor Compact and the latter is a Pro Mirrorless by rivals Casio and Leica. There is a huge difference between the resolutions of the EX-FC150 (10MP) and M-E Typ 220 (18MP) and the EX-FC150 (1/2.3") and M-E Typ 220 (Full frame) come with totally different sensor dimensions.

The EX-FC150 was introduced 3 years earlier than the M-E Typ 220 and that is quite a significant gap as far as tech is concerned. Both cameras come with different body type with the Casio EX-FC150 being a Compact camera and the Leica M-E Typ 220 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting straight into a more detailed comparison, below is a concise summary of how the EX-FC150 grades against the M-E Typ 220 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability rating of the EX-FC150 and M-E Typ 220 is 93 and 79 respectively.

Oftentimes, it can be hard to visualise the gap between sensor measurements just by reading through technical specs. The photograph here will help give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-FC150 and M-E Typ 220.

As you can tell, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-FC150 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Leica M-E Typ 220 will resolve greater detail using its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older EX-FC150 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
