Oftentimes, it is difficult to picture the difference between sensor sizing purely by checking specifications. The photograph underneath may give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-100 and GX-10.

Plainly, both of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The EX-100 having a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field trickier and the Casio EX-100 will give more detail having an extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The younger EX-100 provides an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
