Kodak Z915 vs Leica C

In this write-up, we will be reviewing the Kodak Z915 and Leica C, both Small Sensor Compact digital cameras by competitors Kodak and Leica. The resolution of the Z915 (10MP) and the C (12MP) is pretty well matched but the Z915 (1/2.3") and C (1/1.7") enjoy totally different sensor size.

The Z915 was manufactured 5 years before the C which is quite a big difference as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before diving through a more detailed comparison, below is a quick summary of how the Z915 matches up vs the C in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

If you are looking to travel with your camera regularly, you'll have to factor in its weight and dimensions. The Kodak Z915 has got physical measurements of 90mm x 64mm x 39mm (3.5" x 2.5" x 1.5") accompanied by a weight of 194 grams (0.43 lbs) and the Leica C has dimensions of 103mm x 63mm x 28mm (4.1" x 2.5" x 1.1") with a weight of 195 grams (0.43 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an ILC will differ depending on the lens you are working with at that time. Following is the front view scale comparison of the Z915 vs the C.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability score of the Z915 and C is 91 and 92 respectively.

In many cases, it can be tough to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by checking technical specs. The image underneath should offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Z915 and C.

As you can tell, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Z915 because of its tinier sensor will make getting bokeh harder and the Leica C will give greater detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures far more aggressively. The more aged Z915 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
