Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC vs Sony WX30 Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Normally, it is very hard to envision the contrast in sensor measurements only by checking out technical specs. The visual below should offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC and WX30.
As you can tell, each of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Sony WX30 to show greater detail due to its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos much more aggressively. The older GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
