RED Komodo-X 6K has a
19.9MP Super 35 (27.03 x 14.26 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Sony NEX-3N has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz processor.
Below you can see the Komodo-X 6K and NEX-3N sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of RED Komodo-X 6K and Sony NEX-3N Cameras
RED Komodo-X 6K and Sony NEX-3N 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
RED Komodo-X 6K
or the
Sony NEX-3N ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(Super 35 versus APS-C),
so compare them at the same framing rather than the same focal length.
Put the same focal length on the smaller sensor and it will show less depth of
field, not more, because it also crops tighter. The calculator shows the
full frame equivalent focal length for each body so you can match the framing.
