Casio EX-FH100 vs Panasonic TS3 Sensor Comparison
Normally, it's tough to envision the difference between sensor sizes merely by looking at a spec sheet. The picture underneath should offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-FH100 and TS3.
As you can see, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Panasonic TS3 to resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-FH100 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
