Samsung Galaxy Camera has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features 1.4GHz Quad-Core processor. On the other hand, Panasonic ZS8 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features Venus Engine FHD processor.
Below you can see the Galaxy Camera and ZS8 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Samsung Galaxy Camera and Panasonic ZS8 Cameras
Samsung Galaxy Camera and Panasonic ZS8 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
Samsung Galaxy Camera
or the
Panasonic ZS8 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
