Fujifilm X20 vs Panasonic 3D1 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, its tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes only by looking at specs. The image below might give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X20 and 3D1.
All in all, both cameras enjoy the same exact resolution but not the same sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X20 features the larger sensor which is going to make getting shallow DOF less difficult. The newer Fujifilm X20 is going to have an advantage in sensor innovation.
