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, Sony W220 has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Panasonic ZS100's sensor provides 8MP more than Sony W220's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Below you can see the ZS100 and W220 sensor size comparison.
As seen above, Panasonic ZS100 has a 4.1x Larger sensor area than Sony W220. 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.
