Canon SX270 HS vs Fujifilm F900EXR Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Sometimes, it's hard to imagine the gap between sensor measurements purely by reading through a spec sheet. The visual underneath will give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX270 HS and Fujifilm F900EXR.
As you can see, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The SX270 HS because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting bokeh tougher and the Fujifilm F900EXR will give greater detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively.
