Casio EX-G1 vs Fujifilm S1 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is tough to visualise the gap between sensor sizing simply by reading through specifications. The visual here will give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-G1 and Fujifilm S1.

Plainly, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You can anticipate the Fujifilm S1 to give you more detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics much more aggressively. The older EX-G1 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
