Canon A2200 vs Panasonic TS3 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Normally, it is hard to envision the difference between sensor dimensions just by looking at specs. The pic below may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the A2200 and TS3.
All in all, the two cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon A2200 to give extra detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged A2200 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
