The C140 was brought out 3 years earlier than the 3D1 and that is a fairly serious difference as far as camera tech is concerned. Both the cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before going straight into a comprehensive comparison, below is a brief summation of how the C140 matches up versus the 3D1 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Kodak C140 vs Panasonic 3D1 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, its difficult to imagine the difference in sensor measurements just by researching specs. The graphic here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the C140 and 3D1.

As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The C140 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Panasonic 3D1 will provide you with more detail having its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images far more aggressively. The older C140 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
