Sony H200 vs Sony RX1R II

Below is a complete overview of the Sony H200 and Sony RX1R II, former being a Small Sensor Superzoom while the latter is a Large Sensor Compact and both are created by Sony. There exists a large gap between the image resolutions of the H200 (20MP) and RX1R II (42MP) and the H200 (1/2.3") and RX1R II (Full frame) use different sensor dimensions.

The H200 was unveiled 3 years earlier than the RX1R II and that is quite a serious difference as far as technology is concerned. Both cameras offer different body type with the Sony H200 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Sony RX1R II being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before diving straight into a more detailed comparison, below is a quick highlight of how the H200 matches up versus the RX1R II with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Bear in mind, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you are utilising during that time. Underneath is the front view measurements comparison of the H200 compared to the RX1R II.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the H200 and RX1R II is 67 and 78 respectively.

More often than not, its tough to picture the contrast between sensor measurements simply by looking at specifications. The photograph here should give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the H200 and RX1R II.

To sum up, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The H200 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field tougher and the Sony RX1R II will give greater detail having an extra 22MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots far more aggressively. The older H200 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
