Casio EX-S5 vs Fujifilm HS35EXR Sensor Comparison
In many cases, it is tough to see the gap in sensor dimensions only by looking through a spec sheet. The picture here should give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-S5 and Fujifilm HS35EXR.
Clearly, both the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The EX-S5 due to its smaller sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm HS35EXR will render extra detail due to its extra 7MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots much more aggressively. The more aged EX-S5 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
