Casio EX-S5 vs Casio EX-Z35 Sensor Comparison
Typically, it is very difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor dimensions just by going through technical specs. The image below should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-S5 and EX-Z35.
As you can tell, both of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit different megapixels. You can count on the Casio EX-Z35 to produce more detail because of its extra 3 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop shots far more aggressively. The more aged EX-S5 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
