Fujifilm S4800 vs Panasonic GM5 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it's tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes purely by reviewing a spec sheet. The pic below will help give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm S4800 and GM5.
Clearly, both of the cameras offer the same exact megapixels but not the same sensor sizes. The Fujifilm S4800 features the tinier sensor which will make getting bokeh more challenging. The more aged Fujifilm S4800 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
