Casio EX-H20G vs Samsung EX2F Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very tough to imagine the contrast between sensor measurements simply by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph below should give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-H20G and EX2F.

Clearly, each of these cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-H20G having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Casio EX-H20G will give extra detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures far more aggressively. The older EX-H20G is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
