Ricoh G900SE II has a
20.0MP 1/2.3 inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Panasonic TS30 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3 (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the G900SE II and TS30 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Ricoh G900SE II and Panasonic TS30 Cameras
Ricoh G900SE II and Panasonic TS30 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
Ricoh G900SE II
or the
Panasonic TS30 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(1/2.3 inch versus 1/2.3),
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.
