Panasonic FH2 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features Venus Engine IV processor. On the other hand, Pentax WG-3 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the FH2 and WG-3 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic FH2 and Pentax WG-3 Cameras
Panasonic FH2 and Pentax WG-3 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 FH2
or the
Pentax WG-3 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
