Casio EX-FH100 vs Samsung GX-1S Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is tough to imagine the contrast between sensor measurements just by looking at a spec sheet. The visual here might give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-FH100 and GX-1S.

Clearly, both the cameras have different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-FH100 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF harder and the Casio EX-FH100 will give you extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The younger EX-FH100 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
