Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm has a
10.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features Smooth Imaging Engine IV processor. On the other hand, Canon N has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 5 processor.
Below you can see the GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC and N sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm and Canon N Cameras
Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm and Canon N 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. On the other hand, since Canon N has 11% larger pixel area (3.12µm 2 vs 2.81µm 2 ) compared to Ricoh GXR P10 28-300mm, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
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 GXR P10 28-300mm
or the
Canon N ,
including hyperfocal distance.
