Ricoh PX vs Sigma fp Sensor Comparison

As you can plainly see, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The PX featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh more challenging and the Sigma fp will offer more detail due to its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots far more aggressively. The more aged PX is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
