Kodak Z5120 vs Sony RX10 II

Here is a in-depth overview of the Kodak Z5120 versus Sony RX10 II, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the other is a Large Sensor Superzoom by competitors Kodak and Sony. The sensor resolution of the Z5120 (16MP) and the RX10 II (20MP) is very similar but the Z5120 (1/2.3") and RX10 II (1") have totally different sensor size.

The Z5120 was unveiled 4 years earlier than the RX10 II and that is quite a significant gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of the cameras have the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before diving into a step-by-step comparison, here is a quick highlight of how the Z5120 grades against the RX10 II for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Kodak EasyShare Z5120 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 II. The full galleries are provided at Kodak Z5120 Gallery and Sony RX10 II Gallery.

If you're aiming to carry your camera regularly, you will want to take into account its weight and volume.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you have attached at the time. Following is a front view measurements comparison of the Z5120 against the RX10 II.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability grade of the Z5120 and RX10 II is 68 and 58 respectively.

Usually, it can be difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing simply by going over technical specs. The photograph underneath might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the Z5120 and RX10 II.

As you have seen, the two cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Z5120 having a tinier sensor will make shooting bokeh more difficult and the Sony RX10 II will offer extra detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The older Z5120 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
