Canon SX540 HS vs Fujifilm SL300 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is very hard to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reviewing specifications. The pic here will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the SX540 HS and Fujifilm SL300.
Plainly, the two cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon SX540 HS to offer you greater detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The fresher SX540 HS will have a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
