Casio EX-FS10 vs Sony NEX-5T Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very tough to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions merely by going over technical specs. The pic here will give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-FS10 and NEX-5T.

As you can tell, both of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The EX-FS10 having a tinier sensor will make getting shallower DOF tougher and the Sony NEX-5T will offer extra detail with its extra 7 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged EX-FS10 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
