Casio EX-H15 vs Nikon S9900 Sensor Comparison
Quite often, it is very hard to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions merely by seeing specs. The image underneath should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-H15 and S9900.
All in all, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Nikon S9900 to produce extra detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-H15 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
