To sum up, both of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The G3 using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sony ZV-E10 will provide greater detail with its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will let you crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged G3 will be behind with regard to sensor tech.
