Panasonic S1H has a
24.0MP Full frame (35.6 x 23.8 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Venus Engine processor. On the other hand, Canon 5D MII has a
21.0MP Full frame (36 x 24 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4 processor.
Below you can see the S1H and 5D MII sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic S1H and Canon 5D MII Cameras
Panasonic S1H and Canon 5D MII 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
Panasonic S1H
or the
Canon 5D MII ,
including hyperfocal distance.
