Kodak S-1 vs Leica M Typ 262

In this write-up, we will be reviewing the Kodak S-1 versus Leica M Typ 262, former is a Entry-Level Mirrorless while the latter is a Pro Mirrorless by competitors Kodak and Leica. There is a sizable difference between the image resolutions of the S-1 (16MP) and M Typ 262 (24MP) and the S-1 (Four Thirds) and M Typ 262 (Full frame) come with different sensor sizing.

The S-1 was unveiled 17 months before the M Typ 262 which makes the cameras a generation away from each other. Both of the cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before getting through a more detailed comparison, below is a quick overview of how the S-1 scores against the M Typ 262 for portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Kodak Pixpro S-1 & Leica M Typ 262. The full galleries are available at Kodak S-1 Gallery & Leica M Typ 262 Gallery.

When you are going to carry around your camera, you need to factor in its weight and proportions. The Kodak S-1 has got outer measurements of 116mm x 68mm x 36mm (4.6" x 2.7" x 1.4") with a weight of 290 grams (0.64 lbs) while the Leica M Typ 262 has measurements of 139mm x 80mm x 42mm (5.5" x 3.1" x 1.7") accompanied by a weight of 600 grams (1.32 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you are working with at the time. Below is the front view sizing comparison of the S-1 and the M Typ 262.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability score of the S-1 and M Typ 262 is 88 and 77 respectively.

Usually, its difficult to visualize the gap between sensor sizes purely by going over specs. The picture below may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the S-1 and M Typ 262.

All in all, each of these cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The S-1 having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Leica M Typ 262 will offer more detail having an extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged S-1 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
