Ricoh CX5 vs Sigma fp Sensor Comparison
Generally, it is very hard to envision the gap in sensor sizing just by seeing a spec sheet. The photograph underneath may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the CX5 and fp.
Clearly, the 2 cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The CX5 with its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Sigma fp will produce greater detail having an extra 15 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older CX5 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
