Casio EX-H30 vs Panasonic ZS60 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it's hard to envision the gap in sensor measurements merely by checking out a spec sheet. The graphic underneath might give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-H30 and ZS60.
Clearly, the 2 cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Panasonic ZS60 to provide extra detail with its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images more aggressively. The older EX-H30 will be behind in sensor tech.
