FujiFilm F80EXR vs Panasonic LX7 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes merely by reading through specifications. The picture here may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the F80EXR and LX7.

To sum up, the 2 cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The F80EXR due to its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more difficult and the FujiFilm F80EXR will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged F80EXR is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
