To sum up, each of these cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The SP-610UZ using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more challenging and the Panasonic G100 will produce extra detail having an extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics far more aggressively. The more aged SP-610UZ will be behind in sensor technology.
