Canon 160 vs FujiFilm Z800EXR Sensor Comparison
More often than not, it is very tough to imagine the gap in sensor dimensions purely by looking through technical specs. The pic below will offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 160 and Z800EXR.
As you can tell, the two cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The 160 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more challenging and the Canon 160 will result in greater detail utilizing its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures more aggressively. The younger 160 should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
