12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features TruePic III processor. On the other hand, Sony TX20 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features BIONZ processor.
Below you can see the SP-600 UZ and TX20 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Olympus SP-600 UZ and Sony TX20 Cameras
Olympus SP-600 UZ and Sony TX20 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 SP-600 UZ
or the
Sony TX20 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
