Panasonic G7 vs Panasonic LZ20

Its time to take a closer look at the Panasonic G7 and Panasonic LZ20, one is a Advanced Mirrorless and the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom and both are produced by Panasonic. The resolution of the G7 (16MP) and the LZ20 (16MP) is very well matched but the G7 (Four Thirds) and LZ20 (1/2.3") provide different sensor measurements.

The G7 was introduced 2 years after the LZ20 which is quite a significant gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras feature different body design with the Panasonic G7 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic LZ20 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go straight to a more detailed comparison, here is a short synopsis of how the G7 matches up vs the LZ20 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-LZ20. The whole galleries are provided at Panasonic G7 Gallery and Panasonic LZ20 Gallery.

Oftentimes, it is difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by looking at a spec sheet. The picture here may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the G7 and LZ20.

Clearly, the two cameras feature the identical resolution but different sensor dimensions. The G7 includes the larger sensor which should make getting shallower DOF simpler. The fresher G7 provides an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
