Olympus FE-25 vs Pentax RZ10

Here is a extensive analysis of the Olympus FE-25 versus Pentax RZ10, one being a Ultracompact and the latter is a Small Sensor Compact by brands Olympus and Pentax. There is a crucial difference between the resolutions of the FE-25 (10MP) and RZ10 (14MP) but they feature the exact same sensor measurements (1/2.3").

The FE-25 was revealed 3 years prior to the RZ10 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera and the Pentax RZ10 being a Compact camera.

Before delving through a detailed comparison, below is a concise overview of how the FE-25 grades versus the RZ10 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Olympus FE-25 and Pentax Optio RZ10. The full galleries are provided at Olympus FE-25 Gallery and Pentax RZ10 Gallery.

For those who are intending to carry your camera frequently, you need to consider its weight and measurements.

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you choose at that time. Here is the front view over all size comparison of the FE-25 compared to the RZ10.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability rating of the FE-25 and RZ10 is 98 and 92 respectively.

Usually, its hard to imagine the gap between sensor sizing only by looking at technical specs. The visual underneath may provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the FE-25 and RZ10.

As you have seen, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit different MP. You should expect the Pentax RZ10 to give you more detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs much more aggressively. The older FE-25 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
