Casio EX-FH100 vs Sony NEX-3N Sensor Comparison

As you can see, both of those cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The EX-FH100 using its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Sony NEX-3N will produce greater detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-FH100 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
