Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic FP3 and Panasonic FP7 Cameras
Panasonic FP3 and Panasonic FP7 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 FP3
or the
Panasonic FP7 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
