The SX50 HS was unveiled 2 years later than the Fujifilm JV150 and that is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras offer different body type with the Canon SX50 HS being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Fujifilm JV150 being a Compact camera.

Before going straight into a more detailed comparison, below is a short summation of how the SX50 HS matches up versus the Fujifilm JV150 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Canon PowerShot SX50 HS and Fujifilm FinePix JV150. The full galleries are viewable at Canon SX50 HS Gallery and Fujifilm JV150 Gallery.

More often than not, it can be hard to visualise the gap between sensor sizing simply by going over specifications. The visual underneath will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the SX50 HS and Fujifilm JV150.

Plainly, both of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Fujifilm JV150 to offer extra detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots a little more aggressively. The newer SX50 HS is going to have an edge in sensor innovation.
