The PowerShot G1 X Mk. III features a APS-C sized sensor, while the PowerShot G3 X uses a 1″ sensor. This infographic highlights the sensor areas of both models compared to other common sensor formats: Note: 1-Euro coin for scale; the coin at 23.25mm diameter is slightly smaller than a US quarter. Boasting an area of 332mm² (0.53 sq.in.) the sensor of the PowerShot G1 X Mk. III is a lot larger than the PowerShot G3 X’s chip at 116mm² (0.19 sq.in.). In most cases a larger sensor will yield better results in low light, a considerable advantage in many situations (e.g. interior images), a clear disadvantage of the 1″ format.
