IMO downsizing more about reducing the affects of image noise; which helps with "appearance" of being sharper. downsizing IQ results will vary with the app and filter/ method used.

Been using various (Kodak, Olympus, Canon. Panasonic, etc.) small compacts since 1998.

Over the years I've read numerous full reviews, done my own tests with images from the cameras I've owned, and downloaded images (JPG, TIF, RAW) from online reviews.

I mainly shoot RAW for the better highlights/ shadows recovery, and noise reduction as I do fair amount of shooting in low light/ adverse lighting conditions.

I've bought the Panasonic compacts (e.g., ZS50) for the EVF and RAW; rather than Canon compacts.

Cheers,
Jon
