Fujifilm JZ100 vs Sigma DP1s

Below is a extensive assessment of the Fujifilm JZ100 vs Sigma DP1s, former being a Small Sensor Compact while the latter is a Large Sensor Compact by companies FujiFilm and Sigma. There is a noticeable difference between the sensor resolutions of the Fujifilm JZ100 (14MP) and DP1s (5MP) and the Fujifilm JZ100 (1/2.3") and DP1s (APS-C) enjoy different sensor sizes.

The Fujifilm JZ100 was announced 2 years later than the DP1s and that is quite a sizable difference as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras come with different body type with the Fujifilm JZ100 being a Compact camera and the Sigma DP1s being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before delving through a comprehensive comparison, below is a simple summary of how the Fujifilm JZ100 grades against the DP1s with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Fujifilm FinePix JZ100 & Sigma DP1s. The whole galleries are available at Fujifilm JZ100 Gallery & Sigma DP1s Gallery.

If you are planning to lug around your camera, you have to take into account its weight and proportions.

Remember that, the weight of an ILC will change depending on the lens you have during that time. The following is the front view size comparison of the Fujifilm JZ100 against the DP1s.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm JZ100 and DP1s is 95 and 90 respectively.

Oftentimes, it can be tough to visualize the gap between sensor measurements only by going over specs. The photograph here may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm JZ100 and DP1s.

All in all, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm JZ100 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm JZ100 will offer more detail with its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm JZ100 should have a benefit in sensor tech.
