Leica T Type 701 vs Panasonic GF5

Let's examine more closely at the Leica T Type 701 vs Panasonic GF5, one is a Advanced Mirrorless and the other is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by companies Leica and Panasonic. There exists a crucial gap between the image resolutions of the T Type 701 (16MP) and GF5 (12MP) and the T Type 701 (APS-C) and GF5 (Four Thirds) feature different sensor sizing.

The T Type 701 was brought out 2 years after the GF5 which is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going through a complete comparison, below is a short synopsis of how the T Type 701 scores versus the GF5 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a sample of the gallery pictures for Leica T Typ 701 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF5. The entire galleries are provided at Leica T Type 701 Gallery and Panasonic GF5 Gallery.

For those who are aiming to travel with your camera often, you have to factor its weight and proportions. The Leica T Type 701 has physical dimensions of 134mm x 69mm x 33mm (5.3" x 2.7" x 1.3") having a weight of 384 grams (0.85 lbs) whilst the Panasonic GF5 has measurements of 108mm x 67mm x 37mm (4.3" x 2.6" x 1.5") with a weight of 267 grams (0.59 lbs).

Keep in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you are utilising during that time. Following is the front view scale comparison of the T Type 701 vs the GF5.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the T Type 701 and GF5 is 85 and 89 respectively.

Normally, it is very difficult to picture the contrast between sensor dimensions only by looking at technical specs. The picture underneath might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the T Type 701 and GF5.

As you have seen, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The T Type 701 due to its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Leica T Type 701 will give greater detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics far more aggressively. The younger T Type 701 provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
