Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon SD780 IS and Panasonic FX75 Cameras
Canon SD780 IS and Panasonic FX75 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.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon SD780 IS
or the
Panasonic FX75 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
