FujiFilm JZ500 vs Leica C Sensor Comparison
Often, its hard to imagine the gap in sensor dimensions simply by viewing technical specs. The image below will help offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the JZ500 and C.
As you have seen, the 2 cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The JZ500 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field tougher and the FujiFilm JZ500 will provide you with more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged JZ500 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
