Canon SX610 HS vs Casio EX-ZR1000 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it can be tough to picture the gap between sensor sizes purely by reading through technical specs. The image here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the SX610 HS and EX-ZR1000.
As you have seen, both cameras feature the identical sensor size but different resolution. You can expect to see the Canon SX610 HS to give greater detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics way more aggressively. The more modern SX610 HS should have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
