As you can see, both of these cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-S7 having a smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sony A3000 will produce greater detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-S7 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
