Both Leica M10 and Leica M Typ 240 have 24.0 MP resolution sensors but Leica M10's sensor is Full frame (35.8 x 23.9 mm ) and Leica M Typ 240's sensor is Full frame (36 x 24 mm ).
Since Leica M Typ 240's has a larger sensor area with the same resolution, this means that it also has a larger pixel area hence better light collecting capacity for a given aperture compared to Leica M10.
Below you can see the M10 and M Typ 240 sensor size comparison.
Leica M10 and Leica M Typ 240 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
DxOMark Sensor Scores
Both Leica M10 and Leica M Typ 240 sensors have been tested by DxoMark. DxoMark scores camera sensors for color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape) and low-light sensitivity (DXO Sports), and also gives them an overall score. Of the two cameras that we are comparing, M10 has scored 86, 2 points higher than M Typ 240.
