Canon SD1200 IS vs Casio EX-ZR700 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it can be hard to see the gap between sensor dimensions purely by reviewing specifications. The image below should provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the SD1200 IS and EX-ZR700.
Plainly, both of those cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Casio EX-ZR700 to offer you more detail having an extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos way more aggressively. The more aged SD1200 IS is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
