16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the H55 and TS20 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony H55 and Panasonic TS20 Cameras
Sony H55 and Panasonic TS20 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
Sony H55
or the
Panasonic TS20 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
