The FP3 was brought out 7 years prior to the Quattro H and that is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras feature different body design with the Panasonic FP3 being a Ultracompact camera and the Sigma Quattro H being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving right into a detailed comparison, here is a quick introduction of how the FP3 scores versus the Quattro H in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP3 and Sigma sd Quattro H. The entire galleries are provided at Panasonic FP3 Gallery and Sigma Quattro H Gallery.

Typically, it can be tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing only by reviewing specifications. The visual underneath should provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the FP3 and Quattro H.

Plainly, each of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The FP3 featuring a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Sigma Quattro H will offer extra detail having its extra 31MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older FP3 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
