Olympus FE-25 vs Sony RX10 III

The following is a extended comparison of the Olympus FE-25 versus Sony RX10 III, one is a Ultracompact and the other is a Large Sensor Superzoom by competitors Olympus and Sony. There is a big difference among the resolutions of the FE-25 (10MP) and RX10 III (20MP) and the FE-25 (1/2.3") and RX10 III (1") have totally different sensor sizing.

The FE-25 was released 8 years prior to the RX10 III which is a fairly big gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both cameras feature different body design with the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera and the Sony RX10 III being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go straight to a in depth comparison, here is a concise view of how the FE-25 scores against the RX10 III in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Olympus FE-25 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 III. The complete galleries are viewable at Olympus FE-25 Gallery and Sony RX10 III Gallery.

When you are looking to travel with your camera regularly, you will want to think about its weight and dimensions. The Olympus FE-25 enjoys physical measurements of 93mm x 62mm x 24mm (3.7" x 2.4" x 0.9") and a weight of n/a grams (0.00 lbs) and the Sony RX10 III has dimensions of 133mm x 94mm x 127mm (5.2" x 3.7" x 5.0") along with a weight of 1051 grams (2.32 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you select at that time. Below is a front view dimensions comparison of the FE-25 against the RX10 III.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability grade of the FE-25 and RX10 III is 98 and 53 respectively.

Generally, its tough to see the gap in sensor dimensions merely by looking through technical specs. The image underneath will provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the FE-25 and RX10 III.

As you have seen, each of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The FE-25 featuring a smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sony RX10 III will render more detail as a result of its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop images way more aggressively. The more aged FE-25 will be behind in sensor innovation.
