Leica SL2 has a
47.0MP Full frame (36 x 24 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Maestro III processor. On the other hand, Panasonic S1R II has a
44.3MP Full frame (36 x 24 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Venus Engine processor.
Another similarity between these two cameras is that both Panasonic S1R II and Leica SL2 sensors lack anti-alias (Low-Pass) filters. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moiré occurring in certain scenes.
Below you can see the SL2 and S1R II sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Leica SL2 and Panasonic S1R II Cameras
Leica SL2 and Panasonic S1R II have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with 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
Leica SL2
or the
Panasonic S1R II ,
including hyperfocal distance.
