Olympus TG-610 vs Panasonic G95 Sensor Comparison

Usually, it is hard to visualize the gap in sensor dimensions just by going through a spec sheet. The picture here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the TG-610 and G95.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The TG-610 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF tougher and the Panasonic G95 will produce more detail as a result of its extra 6.3MP. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs much more aggressively. The more aged TG-610 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
