Olympus VG-110 vs Sony RX100 V

The following is a extended overview of the Olympus VG-110 and Sony RX100 V, one is a Ultracompact and the latter is a Large Sensor Compact by brands Olympus and Sony. There exists a big gap among the resolutions of the VG-110 (12MP) and RX100 V (20MP) and the VG-110 (1/2.3") and RX100 V (1") enjoy totally different sensor measurements.

The VG-110 was released 6 years prior to the RX100 V which is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of the cameras come with different body type with the Olympus VG-110 being a Ultracompact camera and the Sony RX100 V being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before we go in to a in depth comparison, below is a quick highlight of how the VG-110 scores versus the RX100 V when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you choose at that moment. Below is the front view measurement comparison of the VG-110 and the RX100 V.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the VG-110 and RX100 V is 97 and 89 respectively.

Typically, it is very difficult to envision the gap in sensor dimensions purely by seeing specifications. The image here will help offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the VG-110 and RX100 V.

Plainly, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The VG-110 featuring a smaller sensor will make getting bokeh more difficult and the Sony RX100 V will produce greater detail as a result of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged VG-110 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
