Canon 60D vs Fujifilm S4200 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it can be tough to imagine the difference in sensor dimensions only by going through a spec sheet. The picture below may give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the 60D and Fujifilm S4200.

Clearly, each of the cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The 60D having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier and the Canon 60D will provide greater detail because of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged 60D will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
