Leica SL vs Panasonic G95

Below is a detailed comparison of the Leica SL and Panasonic G95, former being a Pro Mirrorless while the other is a Advanced Mirrorless by brands Leica and Panasonic. The image resolution of the SL (24MP) and the G95 (20.3MP) is very well matched but the SL (Full frame) and G95 (Four Thirds) provide different sensor sizing.

The SL was unveiled 4 years earlier than the G95 and that is quite a sizable difference as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras have the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before going straight to a thorough comparison, here is a concise summation of how the SL scores versus the G95 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Leica SL & Panasonic Lumix DMC-G95. The full galleries are provided at Leica SL Gallery & Panasonic G95 Gallery.

In case you're intending to lug around your camera regularly, you need to think about its weight and volume.

Always remember, the weight of an ILC will vary dependant on the lens you are employing at that time. Here is a front view dimensions comparison of the SL against the G95.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability grade of the SL and G95 is 67 and 67 respectively.

Often, its tough to picture the gap between sensor measurements merely by checking technical specs. The visual underneath might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the SL and G95.

As you can tell, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The SL having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF simpler and the Leica SL will resolve greater detail having an extra 3.7 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The older SL is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
