Olympus FE-47 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features TruePic III processor. On the other hand, Canon SX260 HS has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features Digic 5 processor.
Below you can see the FE-47 and SX260 HS sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Olympus FE-47 and Canon SX260 HS Cameras
Olympus FE-47 and Canon SX260 HS 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-47
or the
Canon SX260 HS ,
including hyperfocal distance.
