The GX8 was brought out 7 years earlier than the ZV-E10 and that is quite a large gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before diving straight to a complete comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the GX8 grades against the ZV-E10 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Panasonic Lumix DMC-GX8 and Sony ZV-E10. The entire galleries are provided at Panasonic GX8 Gallery and Sony ZV-E10 Gallery.

For those who are looking to lug around your camera regularly, you have to consider its weight and measurements.

Typically, its hard to imagine the gap between sensor measurements purely by reviewing a spec sheet. The visual underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the GX8 and ZV-E10.

Clearly, each of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The GX8 due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sony ZV-E10 will offer more detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older GX8 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
