The S-1 was released 3 years earlier than the TL and that is quite a large gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras have the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before diving right into a complete comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the S-1 grades vs the TL when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Kodak Pixpro S-1 and Leica TL. The complete galleries are provided at Kodak S-1 Gallery and Leica TL Gallery.

Oftentimes, its difficult to visualize the difference between sensor measurements simply by going over specifications. The graphic underneath may provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the S-1 and TL.

To sum up, both of these cameras provide the same resolution albeit different sensor measurements. The S-1 comes with the tinier sensor which will make getting bokeh tougher. The older S-1 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
