Panasonic FP1 has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features Venus Engine IV processor. On the other hand, Kodak WPZ2 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the FP1 and WPZ2 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic FP1 and Kodak WPZ2 Cameras
Panasonic FP1 and Kodak WPZ2 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 FP1
or the
Kodak WPZ2 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
