Canon SX710 HS vs Fujifilm HS30EXR Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it is difficult to see the difference between sensor dimensions just by checking technical specs. The picture below may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX710 HS and Fujifilm HS30EXR.
As you can tell, the two cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The SX710 HS due to its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower DOF tougher and the Canon SX710 HS will give extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos far more aggressively. The fresher SX710 HS is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
