Casio EX-FH25 vs Sony NEX-5T Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very hard to visualise the difference in sensor dimensions purely by looking through specs. The pic below should provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-FH25 and NEX-5T.

As you can plainly see, each of these cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The EX-FH25 due to its smaller sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Sony NEX-5T will result in extra detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-FH25 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
