Olympus FE-25 vs Panasonic LZ40

The following is a complete analysis of the Olympus FE-25 versus Panasonic LZ40, one is a Ultracompact and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by rivals Olympus and Panasonic. There exists a crucial gap between the resolutions of the FE-25 (10MP) and LZ40 (20MP) but both cameras boast the identical sensor measurements (1/2.3").

The FE-25 was unveiled 6 years before the LZ40 which is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras feature different body design with the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera and the Panasonic LZ40 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before delving straight to a complete comparison, here is a quick summary of how the FE-25 matches up vs the LZ40 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you select at that time. The following is a front view dimension comparison of the FE-25 vs the LZ40.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the FE-25 and LZ40 is 98 and 67 respectively.

Typically, its hard to imagine the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reading through technical specs. The image underneath will help provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the FE-25 and LZ40.

As you have seen, each of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different megapixels. You should expect the Panasonic LZ40 to give you greater detail having an extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged FE-25 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
