Z CAM E2-M4 II 4K has a
10.3MP Four Thirds (19 x 13 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Sony FX6 has a
10.9MP Full frame (36 x 24 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the E2-M4 Mark II and FX6 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Z CAM E2-M4 II 4K and Sony FX6 Cameras
As seen above, Sony FX6 has a 3.5x Larger sensor area than Z CAM E2-M4 II 4K. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in 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
Z CAM E2-M4 II 4K
or the
Sony FX6 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(Four Thirds versus Full frame),
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.
