Panasonic FZ200 vs Panasonic L10 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it's difficult to see the contrast in sensor sizing purely by viewing specifications. The photograph underneath should provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the FZ200 and L10.

Plainly, the 2 cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The FZ200 with its smaller sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Panasonic FZ200 will result in greater detail because of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos much more aggressively. The younger FZ200 will have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
