Leica M11 Monochrome vs Panasonic GH4

Lets look closer at the Leica M11 Monochrome and Panasonic GH4, both Pro Mirrorless cameras by rivals Leica and Panasonic. There exists a huge gap among the resolutions of the M11 Monochrome (60MP) and GH4 (16MP) and the M11 Monochrome (Full frame) and GH4 (Four Thirds) provide totally different sensor measurements.

The M11 Monochrome was released 9 years after the GH4 which is a fairly significant gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras feature different body design with the Leica M11 Monochrome being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic GH4 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving straight to a step-by-step comparison, here is a quick synopsis of how the M11 Monochrome matches up versus the GH4 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Quite often, it can be hard to see the difference in sensor dimensions only by looking through specifications. The picture below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the M11 Monochrome and GH4.

To sum up, the 2 cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The M11 Monochrome due to its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Leica M11 Monochrome will result in extra detail as a result of its extra 44MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more recent M11 Monochrome is going to have a benefit in sensor tech.
