Panasonic ZS200 vs Zeiss ZX1 Sensor Comparison
More often than not, it's tough to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing just by going through a spec sheet. The graphic underneath should offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the ZS200 and ZX1.
As you can see, the 2 cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The ZS200 using its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field tougher and the Zeiss ZX1 will produce extra detail because of its extra 17 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older ZS200 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
