Canon SX150 IS vs Casio EX-ZR800 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Sometimes, its hard to see the contrast in sensor measurements merely by checking out technical specs. The photograph below will provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX150 IS and EX-ZR800.
As you have seen, both of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Casio EX-ZR800 to show greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older SX150 IS will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
