Leica M10 has a
24.0MP Full frame (35.8 x 23.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Maestro II processor. On the other hand, Nikon Z6 II has a
25.0MP Full frame (35.9 x 23.9 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features Dual Expeed 6 processor.
Below you can see the M10 and Z6 Mark II sensor size comparison.
Leica M10 and Nikon Z6 II 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
DxOMark is a benchmark that scientifically assesses image quality of camera sensors. It 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. Leica M10 and Nikon Z6 II sensors have been tested by DxO and the results show that Z6 Mark II has a better overall score of 94, 8 points higher compared to M10's score of 86.
