Panasonic ZS100 has a
20.0MP 1″ (13.2 x 8.8 mm ) sized MOS sensor and features Venus Engine processor. On the other hand, Fujifilm X half has a
18.0MP 1″ (11.7 x 8.8 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the ZS100 and X half sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Panasonic ZS100 and Fujifilm X half Cameras
As seen above, Panasonic ZS100 has a 1.1x Larger sensor area than Fujifilm X half. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in 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 ZS100
or the
Fujifilm X half ,
including hyperfocal distance.
