Olympus VG-110 vs Sony RX100 VII

Here, we will be contrasting the Olympus VG-110 versus Sony RX100 VII, one being a Ultracompact and the latter is a Large Sensor Compact by companies Olympus and Sony. There is a crucial difference among the image resolutions of the VG-110 (12MP) and RX100 VII (20MP) and the VG-110 (1/2.3") and RX100 VII (1") posses totally different sensor measurements.

The VG-110 was manufactured 9 years earlier than the RX100 VII and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras feature different body design with the Olympus VG-110 being a Ultracompact camera and the Sony RX100 VII being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before going into a detailed comparison, here is a simple summation of how the VG-110 scores vs the RX100 VII when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you have at the time. Following is a front view scale comparison of the VG-110 compared to the RX100 VII.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the VG-110 and RX100 VII is 97 and 88 respectively.

Often, it is very tough to envision the gap in sensor measurements purely by checking out a spec sheet. The photograph below may offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the VG-110 and RX100 VII.

As you can see, the two cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The VG-110 because of its smaller sensor will make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Sony RX100 VII will produce greater detail due to its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The older VG-110 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
