Canon A2100 IS vs FujiFilm JX350 Sensor Comparison

Normally, its tough to see the gap in sensor dimensions simply by looking through a spec sheet. The image below will help give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the A2100 IS and JX350.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the FujiFilm JX350 to render more detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images much more aggressively. The more aged A2100 IS will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
