Panasonic G95 vs Sony NEX-6 Sensor Comparison
Oftentimes, its difficult to envision the contrast in sensor dimensions simply by viewing a spec sheet. The pic below will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the G95 and NEX-6.
Clearly, the two cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The G95 with its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Panasonic G95 will render greater detail using its extra 4.3MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The fresher G95 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
