Casio EX-H30 vs Fujifilm X20 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it can be tough to envision the contrast in sensor dimensions only by researching a spec sheet. The picture underneath should offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-H30 and Fujifilm X20.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-H30 featuring a smaller sensor will make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Casio EX-H30 will result in more detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-H30 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
