Panasonic FX75 vs Panasonic G1 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its tough to visualise the difference between sensor dimensions only by reading through technical specs. The image underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the FX75 and G1.

As you can tell, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The FX75 because of its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF tougher and the Panasonic FX75 will give greater detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics far more aggressively. The more modern FX75 is going to have an advantage in sensor technology.
