Panasonic G10 vs Sony A6600 Sensor Comparison

Normally, its hard to picture the contrast in sensor measurements just by seeing a spec sheet. The graphic here may offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the G10 and A6600.

As you can see, the 2 cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The G10 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF harder and the Sony A6600 will provide more detail utilizing its extra 12 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The older G10 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
