Canon ELPH 310 HS vs Kodak Touch Sensor Comparison

Generally, its hard to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements purely by seeing specifications. The photograph here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the ELPH 310 HS and Touch.

Plainly, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The ELPH 310 HS featuring a larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Kodak Touch will show extra detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The younger ELPH 310 HS will have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
