Olympus TG-4 vs Ricoh GXR S10 24-72mm F2.5-4.4 VC Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it is very hard to see the contrast between sensor sizing just by going over a spec sheet. The visual here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the TG-4 and GXR S10 24-72mm F2.5-4.4 VC.
Clearly, both the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The TG-4 because of its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the Olympus TG-4 will offer you more detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos way more aggressively. The newer TG-4 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
