Leica TL has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Ricoh GXR GR Lens A12 28mm has a
12.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features GR Engine III processor.
Below you can see the TL and GXR GR Lens A12 28mm F2.5 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Leica TL and Ricoh GXR GR Lens A12 28mm Cameras
Leica TL and Ricoh GXR GR Lens A12 28mm 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. On the other hand, since Ricoh GXR GR Lens A12 28mm has 31% larger pixel area (30.35µm 2 vs 23.04µm 2 ) compared to Leica TL, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
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 TL
or the
Ricoh GXR GR Lens A12 28mm ,
including hyperfocal distance.
