Casio EX-FH25 vs Sony A7 II Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its tough to see the contrast in sensor sizing merely by seeing technical specs. The photograph here should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-FH25 and A7 II.

As you can tell, both of those cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The EX-FH25 having a smaller sensor will make achieving shallow DOF trickier and the Sony A7 II will show more detail because of its extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-FH25 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
