Canon A3000 IS vs Casio EX-ZR700 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it can be tough to envision the gap between sensor dimensions purely by going over a spec sheet. The pic here should give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the A3000 IS and EX-ZR700.
As you can see, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Casio EX-ZR700 to offer you greater detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The more aged A3000 IS is going to be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
