Casio EX-FH100 vs Sony A700 Sensor Comparison

As you can see, both of those cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The EX-FH100 because of its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the Sony A700 will offer greater detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures way more aggressively. The more recent EX-FH100 should have an edge in sensor innovation.
