Casio EX-G1 vs Samsung ST6500 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, its tough to picture the gap in sensor dimensions only by going through a spec sheet. The picture here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-G1 and ST6500.

Clearly, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but different MP. You should anticipate the Samsung ST6500 to produce greater detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will let you crop images much more aggressively. The more aged EX-G1 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
