Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic ZS99 and Sony HX10V Cameras
Panasonic ZS99 and Sony HX10V 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
Panasonic ZS99
or the
Sony HX10V ,
including hyperfocal distance.
