Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC vs Sony a5000 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is very tough to imagine the difference in sensor dimensions simply by seeing a spec sheet. The image below should offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC and a5000.
Clearly, each of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF harder and the Sony a5000 will provide extra detail because of its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
