Let's look a bit more in depth at the Kodak M575 versus Leica M-E Typ 220, former being a Ultracompact while the latter is a Pro Mirrorless by brands Kodak and Leica. There is a large difference among the sensor resolutions of the M575 (14MP) and M-E Typ 220 (18MP) and the M575 (1/2.3") and M-E Typ 220 (Full frame) provide different sensor measurements.

The M575 was released 3 years prior to the M-E Typ 220 and that is a fairly serious difference as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras have different body design with the Kodak M575 being a Ultracompact camera and the Leica M-E Typ 220 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before going straight to a step-by-step comparison, here is a simple highlight of how the M575 grades against the M-E Typ 220 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Usually, it can be hard to visualize the gap in sensor sizing purely by seeing specs. The graphic underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the M575 and M-E Typ 220.

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The M575 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make shooting bokeh more difficult and the Leica M-E Typ 220 will show more detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The older M575 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
