Canon D10 vs Nikon L28 Sensor Comparison

Usually, its tough to visualise the difference between sensor sizes simply by checking technical specs. The image here will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the D10 and L28.

As you can tell, each of these cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon L28 to resolve more detail as a result of its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop images way more aggressively. The more aged D10 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
