Panasonic G100 vs Panasonic FX75 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it can be tough to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing merely by looking through a spec sheet. The visual here may give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the G100 and FX75.

As you can see, the 2 cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The G100 with its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Panasonic G100 will result in greater detail with its extra 6MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs much more aggressively. The more modern G100 is going to have a benefit in sensor tech.
