Canon S200 vs Fujifilm SL300

Let's look a bit more closely at the Canon S200 versus Fujifilm SL300, one being a Small Sensor Compact and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by rivals Canon and FujiFilm. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the S200 (10MP) and Fujifilm SL300 (14MP) and the S200 (1/1.7") and Fujifilm SL300 (1/2.3") come with totally different sensor sizes.

The S200 was released 2 years later than the Fujifilm SL300 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras come with different body type with the Canon S200 being a Compact camera and the Fujifilm SL300 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before going through a in depth comparison, below is a simple overview of how the S200 scores versus the Fujifilm SL300 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon PowerShot S200 and Fujifilm FinePix SL300. The complete galleries are viewable at Canon S200 Gallery and Fujifilm SL300 Gallery.

If you are looking to carry your camera frequently, you should take into account its weight and dimensions. The Canon S200 enjoys exterior measurements of 100mm x 59mm x 26mm (3.9" x 2.3" x 1.0") having a weight of 181 grams (0.40 lbs) while the Fujifilm SL300 has dimensions of 122mm x 93mm x 100mm (4.8" x 3.7" x 3.9") accompanied by a weight of 510 grams (1.12 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you are utilising during that time. Here is the front view sizing comparison of the S200 compared to the Fujifilm SL300.

Considering size and weight, the portability grade of the S200 and Fujifilm SL300 is 93 and 67 respectively.

Generally, its difficult to see the difference between sensor sizing simply by reading through specs. The visual below should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the S200 and Fujifilm SL300.

All in all, both of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The S200 due to its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm SL300 will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more recent S200 will have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
