The sensor size is 8.9mm x 5mm in the 16:9 format mode. Both at around the same "resolution" which was around 10 megapixels. The images in both folders are about equally viable. In some cases the D-LUX 3 images were better at the low ISO and with image stabilization against my higher ISO's but no stabilization.
