Panasonic G10 vs Sony H300

Its time to look more closely at the Panasonic G10 versus Sony H300, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by competitors Panasonic and Sony. There exists a significant gap between the resolutions of the G10 (12MP) and H300 (20MP) and the G10 (Four Thirds) and H300 (1/2.3") offer totally different sensor sizing.

The G10 was introduced 4 years before the H300 and that is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras have different body design with the Panasonic G10 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony H300 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go into a thorough comparison, here is a short view of how the G10 matches up vs the H300 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Panasonic Lumix DMC-G10 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H300. The whole galleries are viewable at Panasonic G10 Gallery and Sony H300 Gallery.

When you are looking to carry your camera frequently, you'll need to think about its weight and dimensions.

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you have attached at that moment. The following is a front view scale comparison of the G10 vs the H300.

Sometimes, it is very difficult to see the gap between sensor sizing purely by reading through specifications. The photograph below should provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the G10 and H300.

Plainly, both of the cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The G10 using its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Sony H300 will give extra detail using its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older G10 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
