Comparison APS-C Sensors vs. 1"-Sensor

In order to facilitate the comparison of the two APS-C cameras with a 1" sensor camera, I repeat the comparable photos from all the cameras here.

Beyond ISO 800, the Sony shows does not necessarily show more noise than the APS-C cameras, but the details are more and more "ironed out" to arrive at a reasonably respectable image. Beginning with, at least, ISO 800, the green wire gets "muddy" on the Sony photos - on the APS-C cameras' photos only from ISO 3200 and beyond.

Comparison Full-Format Sensor vs. 1" Sensor

In order to facilitate the comparison of the full-format camera with the 1" sensor camera, I repeat the comparable photos from both cameras here.

From ISO 800 and beyond, the Sony does not necessarily show more noise than the Leica M (Typ 240), but the details are more and more "ironed out" to arrive at a reasonably respectable image. Beginning with, at least, ISO 800, the green wire gets "muddy" on the Sony photos - on the Leica's photos it's hard to say...
