Panasonic G10 vs Panasonic GX7 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizing purely by checking technical specs. The graphic here should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the G10 and GX7.

As you have seen, both of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You can expect the Panasonic GX7 to give extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots much more aggressively. The older G10 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
