Panasonic G95 vs Sony RX10 Sensor Comparison

Often, its difficult to envision the contrast in sensor sizes only by looking through technical specs. The image underneath might give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the G95 and RX10.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The G95 having a larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Panasonic G95 will result in more detail having an extra 0.3 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos more aggressively. The more recent G95 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
