Leica V-Lux 20 vs Panasonic ZS10

Below, we will be looking at the Leica V-Lux 20 versus Panasonic ZS10, both Small Sensor Superzoom cameras by rivals Leica and Panasonic. The image resolution of the V-Lux 20 (12MP) and the ZS10 (14MP) is relatively comparable and they feature the exact same sensor sizes (1/2.3").

The V-Lux 20 was announced 9 months earlier than the ZS10 which means that they are both of a similar generation. Both of the cameras come with the identical body type (Compact).

Before delving in to a step-by-step comparison, below is a short synopsis of how the V-Lux 20 matches up versus the ZS10 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Leica V-Lux 20 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10. The whole galleries are viewable at Leica V-Lux 20 Gallery and Panasonic ZS10 Gallery.

For anybody who is aiming to lug around your camera frequently, you'll need to consider its weight and size.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability score of the V-Lux 20 and ZS10 is 91 and 91 respectively.

Generally, it is very hard to envision the difference in sensor measurements only by going through a spec sheet. The visual underneath will help offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the V-Lux 20 and ZS10.

Clearly, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Panasonic ZS10 to provide extra detail with its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The older V-Lux 20 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
