FujiFilm JZ300 vs Sigma fp L

In this article, we are evaluating the FujiFilm JZ300 and Sigma fp L, one being a Small Sensor Compact and the other is a Advanced Mirrorless by rivals FujiFilm and Sigma. There exists a big gap among the sensor resolutions of the JZ300 (12MP) and fp L (61MP) and the JZ300 (1/2.3") and fp L (Full frame) feature different sensor measurements.

The JZ300 was released 12 years prior to the fp L and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras offer different body type with the FujiFilm JZ300 being a Compact camera and the Sigma fp L being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go straight into a in-depth comparison, below is a brief synopsis of how the JZ300 matches up vs the fp L in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for FujiFilm FinePix JZ300 and Sigma fp L. The complete galleries are available at FujiFilm JZ300 Gallery and Sigma fp L Gallery.

For those who are looking to lug around your camera, you will need to take into account its weight and dimensions.

Quite often, it is very difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements purely by checking out specifications. The graphic underneath will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the JZ300 and fp L.

Plainly, both cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The JZ300 because of its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Sigma fp L will produce more detail as a result of its extra 49 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics far more aggressively. The older JZ300 will be behind in sensor innovation.
