It has a bigger sensor. A 1.5 crop.
Same size as half the DSLR's made now.
So like in the old days shooting a Rollei 35 there's be no reason why the
results would not match up with full sized cameras.
Except this has an effect a half fame sized sensor.
So if the Rollei 35 was half frame it would be the same.

The only other mirrorless camera with a sensor this big is the Sony NEX.
But the wait is still on for a 1x crop sensor on a compact mirrorless
camera.
