Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC vs Sony WX50 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, its hard to envision the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by viewing specifications. The image below may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC and WX50.
Plainly, both cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Sony WX50 to provide you with more detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics far more aggressively. The more aged GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
