Casio EX-FC100 vs Sony W650 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its tough to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing only by looking through specifications. The photograph underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-FC100 and W650.

Plainly, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Sony W650 to render greater detail having an extra 7MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos more aggressively. The older EX-FC100 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
