Here is a in depth comparison of the Kodak S-1 vs Panasonic G100, both Entry-Level Mirrorless digital cameras by rivals Kodak and Panasonic. The sensor resolution of the S-1 (16MP) and the G100 (20MP) is pretty similar and both cameras boast the same sensor measurements (Four Thirds).

The S-1 was revealed 7 years earlier than the G100 and that is quite a significant difference as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras have different body design with the Kodak S-1 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic G100 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before going straight to a step-by-step comparison, here is a simple summation of how the S-1 grades against the G100 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Kodak Pixpro S-1 & Panasonic Lumix DC-G100. The full galleries are viewable at Kodak S-1 Gallery & Panasonic G100 Gallery.

For anybody who is intending to carry your camera often, you have to take into account its weight and measurements.

Remember that, the weight of an ILC will change depending on the lens you are employing at that moment. Underneath is a front view scale comparison of the S-1 and the G100.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability grade of the S-1 and G100 is 88 and 81 respectively.

Oftentimes, it can be difficult to see the gap between sensor sizing purely by reviewing specs. The visual underneath may give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the S-1 and G100.

All in all, each of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You can expect the Panasonic G100 to offer you more detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop shots a bit more aggressively. The older S-1 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
