Olympus FE-4000 has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features TruePic III processor. On the other hand, Panasonic FH6 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the FE-4000 and FH6 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Olympus FE-4000 and Panasonic FH6 Cameras
Olympus FE-4000 and Panasonic FH6 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
Olympus FE-4000
or the
Panasonic FH6 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
