Canon 160 vs Casio EX-Z800 Sensor Comparison
Quite often, its difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements only by going through specifications. The photograph underneath might provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 160 and EX-Z800.
Plainly, both of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit different MP. You should count on the Canon 160 to show extra detail with its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The newer 160 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
