Sony H200 vs Sony RX1R II Sensor Comparison

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.
