Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Olympus VH-515 and Sony TX20 Cameras
Olympus VH-515 and Sony TX20 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.
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 VH-515
or the
Sony TX20 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
