Sigma DP2 with Leica X Overview


Let's compare Leica X with Sigma DP2. These models are included in the Large Sensor Compact cameras. Leica X (Typ 113) was released in 2014, and Sigma DP2 in 2009. X is newer, which is a plus. DP2 5 years older. 5 years, this is a pretty big age difference.
The sensor resolution of X is greater than that of DP2. The difference of 11 MP is quite a lot. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (DP2), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. At Leica X (Typ 113), the maximum ISO is greater by 9300. Leica X (Typ 113) has a larger 3-inch Fixed screen, the other camera has a 2-inch Fixed screen.
Burst mode, also called continuous shooting mode, sports mode or continuous high speed mode, is a shooting mode in still cameras. Leica X has 3.0 fps continuous shooting. Leica X has 3.0 fps continuous shooting.
