More megapixels. Same sensor. Same boring old Canon.
Eh, how can it be the same sensor when it has 4 extra megapixels, 20 iso. 16? Don't get your point.
We haven't seen even one single sample or review of these cams but already they're being written off as rubbish. I don't understand that attitude.
Easy.
The sensor is 20mp bsi cmos at 1/2.3 inch
We all know that sensor. It's made by Sony and it used in most of their compacts and xperia phones. Then Canon seems to do their best to make the slowest aperture lenses in it's class.
This sensor has very small pixels so it needs a lot of light. in a xperia phone with a F2.2 primes lens. no worries. On a compact camera from brand that people expect more off the lens only goes to f7 at the long end. That means the Compact is a LOT worse then a Sony smartphone.
SX710 is f/3.2 at the wide end, and I'm pretty sure it's better at the long end than a Sony smartphone using 30x digital zoom. Agree though that 20mp probably is a bit over the top.
I am sure the panasonic with it's faster lens and lower MP sensor will be better then the Canon at the long end.
ZS50 is f/3.3-6.4 and SX710 is f/3.2-6.9, so pretty much the same.
the canon is 1/3rd stop slower. Which means it has to use a higher ISO to compensate.
Then the Panasonic has a sensor with less pixels which means larger pixels.
It wins. the question is whether it will be significant
what about color reproduction and Image Stability? canon usually beats panasonic in this categories even on P&S, image stability makes a lot of difference when shutter speed is slow....also for landscape shooting at the wide end usually more MP is better even with small sensors.
The VF and raw support makes the panasonic very interesting
Then it has a viewfinder and a tiltscreen
Yes, that gives ZS60 an advantage (at least IMO. Much prefer cameras with an EVF).
So apples to apples the Canon makes no sense.
And Apples to oranges the Phone is better at the wide-end.
Maybe. Depends on the quality of the lens (and processing, etc.)
Well we can be sure that neither the Panasonic nor the Canon will be significantly better then a device everyone already owns at the wide-end.
Which is the biggest threat to this market. People don't see the difference. since there isn't a significant difference. So unless you offer some nice functionality(panasonic did with the viewfinder)
you wil get a very tough time selling them.
Panasonic decided to decrease the mp count to 12 in their top of the line ZS/TZ. I think all enthusiasts agree that less in this case equals more.
