Nikon S810c has a
16.0MP 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Panasonic FH22 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the S810c and FH22 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Nikon S810c and Panasonic FH22 Cameras
Nikon S810c and Panasonic FH22 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
Nikon S810c
or the
Panasonic FH22 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(1/2.3' versus 1/2.3-inch),
so compare them at the same framing rather than the same focal length.
Put the same focal length on the smaller sensor and it will show less depth of
field, not more, because it also crops tighter. The calculator shows the
full frame equivalent focal length for each body so you can match the framing.
