Canon SX120 IS vs FujiFilm F80EXR Sensor Comparison

Often, it's tough to envision the gap between sensor dimensions purely by looking at specs. The pic below may offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the SX120 IS and F80EXR.

All in all, each of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The SX120 IS featuring a tinier sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the FujiFilm F80EXR will give greater detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged SX120 IS is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
