Canon SX530 HS vs Fujifilm F600 EXR

Below is a in depth overview of the Canon SX530 HS vs Fujifilm F600 EXR, both Small Sensor Superzoom digital cameras by manufacturers Canon and FujiFilm. The image resolution of the SX530 HS (16MP) and the Fujifilm F600 EXR (16MP) is pretty well matched but the SX530 HS (1/2.3") and Fujifilm F600 EXR (1/2") posses totally different sensor measurements.

The SX530 HS was brought out 3 years later than the Fujifilm F600 EXR and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras feature different body design with the Canon SX530 HS being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Fujifilm F600 EXR being a Compact camera.

Before delving right into a thorough comparison, here is a brief view of how the SX530 HS scores against the Fujifilm F600 EXR when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Canon PowerShot SX530 HS and Fujifilm FinePix F600 EXR. The entire galleries are available at Canon SX530 HS Gallery and Fujifilm F600 EXR Gallery.

For those who are looking to lug around your camera, you are going to need to consider its weight and measurements. The Canon SX530 HS features outside measurements of 120mm x 82mm x 92mm (4.7" x 3.2" x 3.6") accompanied by a weight of 442 grams (0.97 lbs) and the Fujifilm F600 EXR has proportions of 104mm x 63mm x 33mm (4.1" x 2.5" x 1.3") having a weight of 215 grams (0.47 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you are using at the time. Following is a front view measurement comparison of the SX530 HS compared to the Fujifilm F600 EXR.

Using size and weight, the portability rating of the SX530 HS and Fujifilm F600 EXR is 69 and 91 respectively.

In many cases, it can be difficult to visualise the gap between sensor measurements purely by checking a spec sheet. The graphic below should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the SX530 HS and Fujifilm F600 EXR.

As you can see, both of these cameras come with the identical resolution albeit not the same sensor measurements. The SX530 HS includes the tinier sensor which is going to make obtaining shallow depth of field harder. The younger SX530 HS will have a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
