Panasonic 3D1 vs Sony W710 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, its tough to visualize the gap between sensor sizing purely by going over specifications. The photograph underneath should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the 3D1 and W710.

To sum up, each of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Sony W710 to offer more detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics much more aggressively. The older 3D1 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
