Casio EX-H20G vs Fujifilm HS30EXR Sensor Comparison

Usually, it can be tough to picture the contrast in sensor measurements purely by going through a spec sheet. The photograph below may offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-H20G and Fujifilm HS30EXR.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-H20G because of its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field tougher and the Fujifilm HS30EXR will produce greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older EX-H20G will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
