Canon ELPH 130 vs Sony W810 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very tough to see the gap in sensor sizes only by viewing specifications. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the ELPH 130 and W810.

Plainly, both of those cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Sony W810 to provide you with greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged ELPH 130 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
