Leica TL vs Sigma fp

Lets take a closer look at the Leica TL and Sigma fp, both Advanced Mirrorless digital cameras by companies Leica and Sigma. There exists a big gap between the resolutions of the TL (16MP) and fp (25MP) and the TL (APS-C) and fp (Full frame) posses totally different sensor sizes.

The TL was released 3 years earlier than the fp and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras have the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before diving straight to a detailed comparison, here is a quick highlight of how the TL matches up versus the fp in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a preview of the gallery images for Leica TL and Sigma fp. The complete galleries are viewable at Leica TL Gallery and Sigma fp Gallery.

If you're going to carry your camera, you need to think about its weight and volume. The Leica TL comes with exterior dimensions of 134mm x 69mm x 33mm (5.3" x 2.7" x 1.3") accompanied by a weight of 384 grams (0.85 lbs) while the Sigma fp has sizing of 113mm x 70mm x 45mm (4.4" x 2.8" x 1.8") along with a weight of 422 grams (0.93 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you use at that moment. Below is a front view overall size comparison of the TL and the fp.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the TL and fp is 85 and 84 respectively.

Quite often, it's tough to see the contrast between sensor sizing just by checking technical specs. The photograph underneath should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the TL and fp.

As you can tell, both of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The TL featuring a tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sigma fp will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 9MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The older TL is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
