Kodak M320 vs Panasonic G9

Lets look a bit more closely at the Kodak M320 versus Panasonic G9, one being a Ultracompact and the latter is a Pro Mirrorless by brands Kodak and Panasonic. There is a crucial difference between the resolutions of the M320 (9MP) and G9 (20MP) and the M320 (1/2.5") and G9 (Four Thirds) posses totally different sensor size.

The M320 was released 9 years before the G9 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the Kodak M320 being a Ultracompact camera and the Panasonic G9 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go right into a in depth comparison, here is a concise summation of how the M320 scores versus the G9 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Oftentimes, it can be hard to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements simply by looking at technical specs. The photograph here will give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the M320 and G9.

As you can tell, the two cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The M320 due to its tinier sensor will make getting shallow DOF harder and the Panasonic G9 will resolve greater detail as a result of its extra 11 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older M320 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
