Casio EX-100 vs Casio EX-ZR15 Sensor Comparison

As you have seen, each of these cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The EX-100 featuring a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Casio EX-ZR15 will resolve extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop photos way more aggressively. The newer EX-100 provides a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
