Canon 90D vs Casio EX-Z400 Sensor Comparison

As you have seen, each of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The 90D featuring a larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field easier and the Canon 90D will result in extra detail as a result of its extra 21 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The newer 90D is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
